Hey all,

Is there any way of telling if a pair of type 3 doors and a boot lid are late or early just by looking at them?

I got some yesterday and now Im not sure if they are the right ones.
I have tried putting them up against the side of my square and they look the same shape, but its difficult to see really.

Any suggestions would be great. Thanks!

so far...all i know how to tell the early doors from the late...is the early door handles are larger with the button below the handle...where as the late ones have the open button on the inside of the handle...also the key hole is seperate to the handle on early models...nd on the later models...its all one piece...
i read somewhere that the quarter windows are different?...i couldnt be sure about that one though....
