Default Sedan doors vs. Ute body

Would sedan front doors fit onto ute bodies?

I imagine they would somehow.

Reason is that I have a dented passenger door and wanted to also do a power window conversion, and figure that instead of buying all the bits and pieces seperately, that I'd just grab the entire door and get an auto electrican to wire them up.

If I came across a sedan with good doors, then I'd know if they fit on the ute.

OK, OK.

I was at Racecraft's workshed over the weekend doing various bits and pieces to my ute (brakes, exhaust tip) and I'd asked him beforehand if we could change the transmission fluid in the ute.

We get to the part where you fill the box with fluid, and he has this 20 gallon drum full of transmission fluid with a pump on it. We get four pumps in before it starts indicating it's full, fluid was spilling out everywhere. It finally stopped, get one more pump in, go for the second one, and because the was so much pressure in the line, that it split, covering the underside of the ute in transmission fluid, the ground underneath and about 6 feet behind the ute in transmission fluid, and the right side of my head.

I'd never seen a man laugh so much ever.

Au doors are expensive . electric regs are only $100ish each with a loom . you will need to change the body loom aswell (or add in a few extra wires)
complete RHF doors are around the $500ish mark
