Post subject:  full glass door

Clubbies have anti burst doors and so do late mini k's, all others ealier have pop doors. Clubbies have a different machanism to early ones. So doors are not compatible.

The english mini's didnt have quarter glass (ive been told), so i suppose you could get a antiburst door (with external hinges) mechanism from england and insert in an aussie door.

others maybe able to confirm

It is possible (everything is possible) but not very likely. I don't think you could do it with factory parts.

What year is yours? 8) You can use the doors from 71 to 78.
You can't use the doors from 61 to 70.

no factory external hinge doors came with full glass, and a factory full glass door won't suit your car, won't even fit in the door hole

If you're dedicated you'd have to make a pair.

Get a set of clubby doors, and an old set of UK mk3+ doors.
Use the inner door skin from the UK door and the outer one of the Aussie door.
Glass would have to be made up.
