I'm pretty sure the RA23 doors and windows are the same as the TA22 but i'm just after a confirmation. Anyone?

I know the doors are, but heard rumors the windows might not be.

I'm pretty sure they are not. I know the RA28 doors have the side intrusion bars (corrugated metal) inside of them and they are the same size as RA23. Someone can correct me on this I am sure.

Yup the 28 has intrusion bars, the 22 doesn't, not too sure on the 23. The glass is different on the 28's but I think the 22 and 23 are the same.

zA22 doors, RA28 doors and xA23 doors do interchange. RA23 doors and RA28 doors have side intrusion bars so are heavier.
TA23 doors should be the same as TA22, Ie no intrusion bars !
The glass on the RA28 is different to the xA22 and xA23. You can just swap the glass over it only the top profiled edge that is different. Regulators and mounting locations are all the same.

lol, well I just sent an RA28 door to my panel beat to replace my TA22 door (obviously) on there now. It was an informed descision to use them, I remember reading somewhere that it was just the side int bars that were different. So yeah, I've seen the doors on the car and they fit fine. No windows in yet - but fingers crossed there isn't something no one knows about.

Do I know what sid intrusion bars are??? Hmm good on ya. I've only welded about 14 billion of them in imported car doors
And I doubt that they would of been replaced by TA22 doors unless somebody found a stash of 1975 model TA22's.

Cool 1,
I don't know exactly what month it changed (I used to mind you but I forget ) But the Early 76 model RA23's dont have intrusion bars. ALL 77 RA23's had them and all RA28's had them. (Aus market only for those dates)
