They have diffrent pressings for your fingers behind the door handle and the door will only take a push button door handle.Also the have a pull up door lock like a beetle on the inside
Possably more not to sure

also, due to the push button lock,inner door handle assembly is only secured via one bolt. if you mount a post 68 inner door handle/lock assembly on a 68 door you'd have to drill an extra hole behind the trim panel to secure it - no great deal really, know one would know. :wink:

also, I've heard the bracing is not as strong on early doors but I don't know for defo,only what I've heard, maybe someone else could compare?
