If you used FORDOR front doors on the coupe....well FORDOR and COUPE doors are the same, EXCEPT at the upper, rear corners. The sedan doors are roughly 5/16"- 3/8" or so taller because of the longer, rearward-rising slope on a sedan roof, as compared to a coupe. You can see the difference below. It's amazing what you ARE accomplishing, though!! DD
