difference between early and late RRC wings?

Aside from the slot for the exposed hing to poke out of, are there any other differences between early exposed hing front wings and later wings?

I'm finding it difficult to get hold of a replacement early wing, and as the later wings are a bit easier to get I'm thinking it might be easy enough to modify one to fit - ie chop an 'ole out..

It's a little more than a cutout, the metal is nicely shaped to give no sharp edges. Not that easy to re-create with the alloy wings, that might just be me being a little anal though. :/

Also, the mounting point from wing to A-post is different.

With regards doors, whilst early and late door skins are the same the stuff inside moved about a lot, the door locking mechanism changed along with mounts for door cards etc. Wiring had different connections for different model years.

Not saying it can't be done though :)
