Subject:      91' doors are better than 85 doors!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

I just purchased some 91 carat doors to convert my 85 westy to power. I have noticed a much more solid thud when closing the door. This is due to added insulation on the door and I think there is an additional side impact beam in there. I also noticed that there is an additional seal along the door where it meets up with the a-piller. I am sure you can just purchase this seal from the dealer....It must reduce road wind noise.......The power windows, power mirrors ( white), and power door locks are awesome.......The next thing would be some white factory alloys and maybe a Hirschman power antenna.....hmmmm? Malibu Tony 85 westy....1.9L.....6 degrees BTDC.......42 degrees full advance
