Can be done, but you have to replace the whole B pillar with a clubman type B pillar, basically it's too much like hard work.

Ok, thanks. Looks like I will repair the roundy doors then.

It`s not that hard really,,,& you don`t have to replace the "whole B pillar", just cut the door catch section out & weld the clubby piece in,,,i actually have one done just like that here as i type.

It`s not something that`d i bother to do, but it`s really not such a big job at all.
