Default Quick XJ body question

Will the doors off a 1997 XJ fit a 1996 XJ?

I'm 99% sure they will but with my luck...

Will they fit maybe but they are different body styles so they will look funny.

Slightly different body lines and I believe the hinges are different. Better to stick with 96 and down...

There were a lot of different changes that started in the 97-up model years.
