Default will this door fit?

i have a 1995 cherokee 2 door with some pretty bad rot around the door handle and i have been looking for a replacement for a while now. i found a pair of doors on ebay that are red (same color as mine) which seem perfect but theyre for a 97 to 01 cherokee. would these fit my jeep they dont look all that different?

The hinges are different, they wont work. 84-95 would be your best bet, I think 96 is hit and miss for the hinges.

You can just take out the vent windows and put regular glass in it. I dont know exactly how to do it but its been discussed on here before.
cant put 97 doors on your 91, and that plastic trim along the bottom is just taped on.

i thought i read somewhere where you can change the doors from a newer model, as long as you change the strike plate and catch lock and i guess the hinges? from one of these forums i thought.
