Swapping bits from 91 loyale to 86 DL

Featured Replies

Hello - I just bought a beater 86 DL wagon with so much friable plastic it's kind of silly. I have a possible line on a parts car, but it's a 91 Loyale. Does anyone know what can be swapped right over w/o too much trouble? I've been looking at this thread on this forum, and it seems like I should be able to switch out, say, the door panels (or entire doors?) but the thread is comparing an 87 GL with the Loyale. Does everything still apply to my 86?

Thanks!

I had an 86 gl. Most parts were interchangeable with all my others, including the 90 loyale. Only catch for me is I never had a dl.

Info on the DL is scarce as it pertains to your question. The doors will swap, yes. The question is whether the wiring harness is there to connect the power windows/locks etc under the dash. You will have to investigate.
