Swapping rear doors

Postby roythegrass » Mon Sep 24, 2012 11:26 pm

Hi all
New here. I've recently bought an '05 Connect LWB/high roof TDCI LX with 'solid' rear doors. I far prefer the glazed rear doors and have seen a pair off a 2011 Connect. Would these be a straight swap ?
Thanks
Roy

Should be a straight swap..but wouldnt it be more economical to have your doors glased mate ?

Thanks Timo.
You're right in that the cost of a pair of windows and the fitting kit at around £150 would be less expensive than swapping the doors. My only reservation is my ability to fit the windows correctly ! Also,knowing my luck the exchange doors albeit 'identical' would not align perfectly so fitting windows to the existing doors may be my best option.
