Re: speaking of spirits (more info)

Guys:

Spirit SEDAN (KAMBACK) door glass (and doors) is the same as Gremlin, Hornet, Concord & Eagle 2-door Sedan glass. This includes the Hornet/Concord hatchback. Even has the same part number.

BUT, the Spirit LIFTBACK door glass (and door) is different. There is a slight taper toward the rear of the car on these cars that is not present in the other 2-door sedan cars (2-door sedan roofs are more flat, Spirit liftback roofs slope more).

Yes, all 2-door doors are the same (exclusive of the bolt-on window frame), but again, glass is different.

How do I know? 
Like you, I rationalized and assumed that they were all the same (after all, Hornet hatchback doors are the same as Gremlin doors, and we all know that the Spirit is basically a Gremlin).  Thus I attempted to replace a Gremlin Door with a Spirit hatchback door and found that with the door properly installed there was a 1" plus gap at the rear of the door window frame and the body of the car.
