They will fit, but remember where your window switches are and where they are on a prefacelift  ;) ;)

Ah right, cheers. I guess the plugs are different on the switches too?

Don't know, but I'm sure that one of the dismantlers will.

Could you get 'blanks' for the switches? Doorcards shouldn't affect their operation?

Most facelift owners would love door cards with the durability of pre-facelift door cards.  ;)

Are the facelift ones fully plastic then? Just think they look smarter

They're coated in a rubber 'paint' which tends to come off & looks unsightly when it does. I'd keep the pre-facelift cards.  ;) ;)

A facelift drivers doorcard without the rubbercoating worn away is a rare thing. ;)

A strange arrangement actually, and quite hard to keep clean because of the coating.

The "soft-touch" coating is in fact quite durable, it's used even on some rifle stocks nad GM is not the only car manufacturer who has used it. Only things that can make it chip or soften are exessive scratching (fingernails, keys!) and certain hand lotions/some other cosmetics products seem to weaken it. And these cosmetics also make leather to "wear", seen quite a few leather steering wheels that are kind of burnt from where hands usually are. Makes me wonder what these peoducts really do to your skin  :-\

Thanks for the advice, i'll think about it. Windows seem a bit of a bastard to convert the switches though
