My two back hatches / doors need replacing as they are bent and / or rusty - I have a 69 Bay Kombi

What year models can supply a replacement engine cover / hatch?

What year models back door / hatch will fit on my bus?

Thanks - need to know before I start trawling wreckers for the bits

G'day,
yeah sorry, I didn't add the Splitty bit, yeah top door will fit, but not bottom. I have '71 top and bottom on the Desert Splitty, top fitted straight on but had to modify the '71 valance to fit the rear of the Splitty, this enabled me to set the bumper 25mm higher for extra ground clearance.
Cheers, Ian.
