Im restaurating a november 1972 BS spider
Parts car...

Car got the doorcatch (dont know the right name) inside the B pillar with 2 crews and the small 6mm bolt.
So not the doorcatch with just 2 screws, but the same than a injected spider for example.

The door has got the BS doorhandles and the doorlock with the more square hole with the 2 screws below and 2 screws more above the lock.
So not the round hole seen in the injected spider.

Problem is that they dont fit together, the lock is about 2 centimeters too low to go inside the doorcatch.

So is there a door available with the round hole and the BS style doorhandles?
What else can be wrong with the car?

This probably won't help solve your problem, but I do know that the door latch parts (both on the door and on the B-pillar) are in slightly different locations between the earlier and later spiders. I don't know what year it was when the location changed. I have heard you can move the latch mechanism inside the door, but that requires drilling some new holes and possibly some welding. In other words, not super easy.

Thanks for replying.
I have seen some pictures of a door with the round hole for the lock together with the early style doorhandles.
So it looks like i need a new set of doors..
Anybody: sounds familiar?
