To be quite frank, you're gunna struggle, unless the 3dr ones are set up for the mechanisms from the 5dr..(I know from the experience of one 5dr and 2 3dr's)

As the 5 door is a vertical cable mechanism, whereas the 3dr uses the arm, you'll need change the steel bit on the bottom of the window..

Unless you can work out how to hook them up to the 3dr windows using the steel bits, (if you can, hats off), it aint worth the bother.

You need the steel bit on the bottom of the windows for the leccy window stuff, plus the mechanisms, plus all the wires etc, and the steel bit is an ARSE to get off (Yes, I know), unless you want to buy new windows and break them doing the same lol.

I tried to put them on my car, but it's too much hard work to just get them on the door. Better left for the 5 doors.

If I was you, I'd look further for 3 door ones. At least they should fit no probs :wink:
