I went out and checked my 02 model, and its hinges are totally different. My 91 has the plastic headed bolts going through the glass from the outside like they all do, and my 02 doesnt have these bolts at all, they are attached to the glass from the inside somehow. I dont see any way you could get them to work without loads of conversion.
