Right so I have a 1982 van, well it used to be a van it now has windows in it......grrrrrr. Anyway what years sliding doors will fit as I've been told the later sliders won't fit the earlier vans. Is this correct?

Not without a lot of messing

You need to make sure it is an early door, you can tell this by looking at the handle, it is longer than the later ones

Early sliders in good nick are like rocking horse poo. Early panel van sliders are like dodo excrement

Cheaper to just get a piece of steel to the same size as a window

Oh not quite the news I was hoping for! So what year did they change the doors?

Rather than go by the handle just look at the latch on C post If someone can beat me to it or Ill go take a picky of a late for you

6 minutes from start to finnish , funny when your looking to spend 1000's on a motor from say fleebay how 'some' vendors find it hard to get round to doing it.

Oh......Doh!! Sorry! I have a 1982 van so I guess an early door. What year did they change?

85 I think

Can you not just make a metal window?

Looks like I'm going to have to!!!

At least it gives you time to look for another door

The thing with stuff for these vans it pays to play the long game
