The wing is bolt on/off. Dead easy. Get some kind of sealant to bed in the new one, I forget what I used precisely. Be prepared for a shock when you se your inner wings though :? Door pins are a bit of a b*tch to get out. You need a door pin removal tool. The Draper tool which is all over ebay does...

5 door interior will fit, but you wont be able to tilt the front seats forward to get access to the back seats. The rear back rest from a saloon will not fit a hatch without serious surgery... the backrest of a saloon is attached to the body of the car with ~18 nuts! Hmm.... so 3 door rear seats wi...

The seat frame, cushion, padding & covers are all the same on the rear seats. However, the backing of the 4 and 3/5 door seat is different, as one is foldeable, the other isn't. It has been made to fit though (e.g. by people fitting leather from a saloon into a hatch). As to the front seats, I'd gu...
