Yes! been there done that

From a 2+2? The doors (and windows) are longer on 2+2's, won't fit a coupe.

Arne, I believe he was talking about the front window only. Based on that, are you still sure about your statement?

Yes. The door itself (and consequently the glass as well) is longer on the 2+2 - about 4-6" as I recall. None of the door parts other than a few of the latch pieces are interchangable between coupes and 2+2s.

I agree with Arne. The door (and hence the glass) has to be longer so the passengers can get into the back. To add, as the roof line is different, do the door aperture has to as well.

I guess i was way off base. I thought he was talking about the windshield. I guess he would have said that if he was. :stupid:

He is talking about the windscreen, Differnt terminolgy in different parts of the world. How the side windows got into this discussion is beyond me?
