MK1 and Mk2 doors

Post by **Tim Leech** » Sun Feb 06, 2011 9:04 pm

Cant remember so excuse me asking, are they the same asides the sound proofing.

GT drivers door is past its best and Ive patched it up once before, the chance of me finding a Mk1 door that's rust free is NIL so would consider a Mk2 and paint it to match.

Thanks!

Should be the same apart from the rubber strip.

im sure they are the same,

you could always try Medway Citroen as they were advertising panles/doors for various citroens,

5 and 10 pounds each depending on condition,

i had a XANT estate rear door from them,

Thansk Chaps. have located a suitable door (NEW).

I think there's some difference to between the rear doors of Mk1 and Mk2 BXs. Something to do with the shape of the rear wheel arch/door close panel (bit where it rusts) - one of them has a 'bump' that prevents the use of the other's door however, vice versa is ok. Trouble is I can't recall what one's what!

I think it's something like the rear doors of a Mk1 will not close if fitted to a Mk2 but that you can easily fit Mk2 rears to a Mk1.

This is of course, useless trivia

I didnt know that, Im assured mk1 and mk2 front doors are the same though so the GT will be getting a new drivers door this year.

Wasn't there a stack of doors of all BX flavours being offered by Rene of Medway Citroen?
