Default diffrent door?

i have had a scrape in my car and need to replace my passenger rear door and the front passenger door.

if the door from a wagon will fit my classic wrx.


i just had a new clutch fitted over the weekend and got my car back on monday morning which i promptley drove into a metal plate at work.
some input would be apreciated as i am new to scoobies.

Firstly, welcome to Subaru's & Scoobynet, I hope they both give you many years of enjoyment.

Yup, Just about everything is the same and transferable between the Wagon & Saloon.

All the panel work from the rear doors forward & all of the running gear share the same dimensions.

The only Items I can think of off the top of my head that are not identical are:

The Tail Gate/Boot Lid (obviously)
Anything Behind The Rear Seats. I.E. Trim, Carpets ETC
Rear Lamps
Roof Trims

You will find throughout the "Classic" model years that certain items, although they will fit, can be of a different spec so you would need to ask about specifics if you decide to use donor parts in future, but as far as doors go, they didn't change the spec from 1993 all the way through to the end of the Classic in 2000.

Question

BM, is the rear bumper interchangeable between sedan and wagon? No one seems to be able to give a definitive answer on this

Yes they are the same fitment.

There are 2 types of styling for the classic & the import has a slight change to the swage line around the bumper, but they are all completely interchangable (Import, UK, Wagon & Saloon)

Thumbs up

Cheers for the confirmation.

Yes, the MY97>on JDM's accent line was smoothed into the rest of the bumper, rather than the to<MY96's moulded 'insert'.

I needed to know, as sometime ago I bought a 2nd hand later smooth - green! lol - bumper to put onto my 93 WRX saloon (still got to paint and fit ), and I realised that, after buying, the ad didn't state sedan or wagon .

Thanks for putting my mind at rest.
