I need to know if the rear interior side panels are interchangeable on the 2 door from 71-76. I have a 75 and someone is selling 71 on ebay. Thanks, Mark
They will physically go in,but there's differences in ash tray location(some don't have one)and I think something about where the seatbelts come through is different too.Depends how "correct" you want it to look.
I believe the 71 did not have retractable seat belts in the rear, so they would not clear the seat belt retractors because they don't come out as far. That would also create a gap between the seat and panel.
Thanks for the info... Looks like I will have to keep lookin'. I guess that's what I get for catchin' it on fire. Thanks, Mark
Here is an article I wrote explaining the differences in side panels. http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=35488&highlight=side+panels+101
