Shannon, The answers to your questions are yes and no respectively. The plastic guides appeared in the 1982 and later cars. It is probably best to stay with the plastic guides.

It appears that the holes are different for the two guides. Did the factory change the placement of the holes between the metal and plastic door guides? Did they make metal door guides with the same configuration as the plastic ones? Shannon VIN 16113 No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
