Thread: County doors on a series 3 stage 1

Hi Guys
im building up a stage 1 to a bit of a custom beast, and i want to county doors as i already have them and the original ones are "flimsy" due to rust
I was wondering if i have to do anything other than just fit county latches to the pillars?

Cheers

Ill post pics once its done

That is a matter of opinion! I regularly drive a County and a S2a with S3 doors - and I have difficulty making up my mind on this subject. Certainly they are different, but big improvement - no. The County doors are much heavier, and more prone to rattles. They are also thicker, giving less elbow room. Certainly they have windup windows, but as against that you can't take the door tops off. Perhaps worth noting though that the doors on my 2a have deluxe trim!
