Thumbs up

first thing to remember is you must kill thge rust and thats very easy, after you have sanded the rust spots give them a good bath with muratic acid to kill the rust , just apply it to the spot let it stand for a few min. and rinse it off folowed be a good soap bath. BE SURE TO WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING WHEN DOING THIS AND EYE PROTECTION. If you have a sand blaster to use its even better. Even the spots back up to the surface with a good spot filler sand them smooth with a pice of 250 grit sanding paper glued to a flat piece of wood and reaply primer to evidence that all scratches are gone then a good wet dry paper keepin it wet with water mixed with baby soap. It should look great. good luck terry-----------tboss

$35??!!!! That guy would be fired on the spot if he sold a door that cheap at the yard I work at lol The door handles are worth more then that each lol I am pretty sure the doors will be the same (94-01), but I do know that some later years (98-01) have different plugs for the window switches. You can at the very least use the shell and transfer your guts over if need be.
