Just curious as the whether anyone knows if the top of Rover doors are the same dimensions as Aussie ones. I know they're different in section but I was toying with idea of fitting the Aussie door top moulds onto rover doors.

I'm pretty certain they are different shapes. I can't tell you how they differ though.

Windows are taller on a rover by an inch - so your chrome strip wouldn't go down far enough.

Yeah, I bought them. Don't even go close to the right shape. I've emailed them twice regarding them but no answer, which pi$$'$ me off no end since I've spent about $3000 with them!

I was hoping you weren't going to say that. :(
