There are two sizes - or more accurately, lengths.

1. four-door cars and commercial vehicles

2. two door cars, convertibles and travellers

Hello mate,
Yes, they will fit if they are from a 2 door,traveller or convertible as the door shape wasn't changed, but there are a few small difference's between lowlight and later doors, namely no rubber buffer under the door handle on the outside and no chrome finisher around it either, but nothing that will affect the fit!

You might need to use the later hinges with the later doors. Otherwise, you might find the door will be around 1/4" too long.

Early hinges didn't open as far as the later type & the doors are different around the hinge mounts.
