will 02 bodypanels fit onto 99
« on: 04 January 2012, 05:17:47 »
hi , Its been a long time since i was on here,  i was just wondering would the bumpers, wings, doors, bonnet etc from an 02 car fit onto my 99 car , as i have a 99 2.5 TD which has served me well for 5 years but the doors are very rusty & i have a 02 2.2 cd body shell minus engine which i could scavenge the parts before she goes for scrap .
I was also looking to kow what way would the electric windows work, if i swapped the doors, as i would have extra switchs could i just plug and play, will the new stlye door panels allow the door to close fully with the old dash, any help would be much appreciated . ian

wonder if anyone has had experience of the electric windows issue , it would be great if it was just plug n play but its never that easy . I run a signmaking company & i intend to wrap the whole car in carbon fibre , i have the roof done already & i will get some pix up, but seeing as i got the 02 for very little money i decided to try to change the doors & bits over if they will fit before i wrap it as its hard to wrap over rust lol .

IMO it'd look better if you swapped your old door panels over to the 'new' doors, and you wouldn't need to worry about trying to get the facelift window switches to work with the prefacelift car's wiring.  :y
