MBEARDEN Posted October 24, 2011 Posted October 24, 2011 Will any parts/accessories interchange between a Caterham and a Birkin...I know the motors will...anything else.
soareyes Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 I put a pair of Caterham half doors on my Birkin and they fit perfectly. http://i227.photobucket.com/albums/dd136/soareyes/DSCN3128.jpg
Marine7 Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 Stan, What model Caterham did the doors come from? I tried a friends early Series 3 doors on my Birkin, but they didnt appear to fit. I must admit, I didnt try very hard. I'd love to fit a set of half doors to my car as it's getting a bit nippy up here in CT... Thanks Jason
Kitcat Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 I have Cat Tillets in my Birkin, tho I had to remove Birkin interior panels, ditto windshield (or so I am told, haven't tried adding the Brooklands yet). Wheels do not fit.

Thanks Jason Jason, I'm pretty sure they were off an early 2000's standard Caterham. The snaps had not been installed so I was able to place them in the proper position on the half doors to match the ones on the Birkin. I bought them on ebay from an owner that never installed them on his car. With a Birkini top and the half doors installed I could drive year-round, but of course I live in the desert so than wouldn't be too hard even without these things!
soareyes Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 Thanks, but I sold it about a year ago! Hopefully the new owner is enjoying it as much as I did.
