Front end roof compatibility between 2dr and 3dr
Hi,
I'd like to ask if i can fit a 2dr(coupe) roof to a 3dr (hatch), i just care about the front end , the 2 pillows or bridges that connect the roof to the body...
Are they compatible?
Thanks

A pilar is the same but not sure for the B pilar.

The rear window of the 2dr is "flush" to the door but there is a peace of "metal shhet" between the rear window and the door on the 3dr (but the roof is perhaps compatible)

i think it don't fit.
rear window are not the same so the shape around it will not fit.

I'll use the front end of it and weld it the the original rear end

Good luck with that, you trying to get rid of a sunroof?
