Sliding Door

[rhoop20]

Hi I have a 1980 T25 and I need to get a new sliding door for it as the one on there at the moment is looking a bit sorry for itself, I have seen one but it is from a 1986 T25, does anyone know if this will fit onto a 1980?

Or where I can get one from.

TIA

Nope they changed in 84/5 and GOOD early ones are very rare and hard to find. Costing around £150-200 mark these days. Probably easier to replace the door bottom with panels from AH Schofield.

Okay thanks for the answer, I think I will give A H Schofield a ring see what they can do.

I had an inner and outer door skin bottom, welded them into the lower crease/fold and it was very difficult to tell the weld etc. Shame i didnt see your post a month ago I had a door for sale but tis of to a good home now - sorry!

Mine turned out like this and it wasn't professionally done..

you can fit as later door on, you just need to add a different striker plate to the back pillar!

I thought it was more involved than that as the doors are a totally different shape. I though I read bout someone on here doing it and it took around 20 hours or so?
