I am at my wit’s end. I have a chevy astro 96 and my driver door and back hatch is rusting out. I am trying to find somewhere that I can get a door and hatch. Every place I go to just tells me they are not available but they can get them. Yea, for their price. I figured it would be cheaper to get one myself and just get it painted. Would save me a lot of cost. Jcwhitney and partsplace. No luck. 2 Junk yards I went to and after walking for half hour, they were rotted out. I know some vehicles you can get the part for a different year but will fit, but I can’t find out what year will fit my 96. My door is electric locks and windows. Any website offered would be awesome. I found a door on ebay from a 2004 astro but didn’t look anything like mine. Is there a site that will tell me which models fit mine for the door and my top part of my back hatch? Thank you.

You can give these guys a shot: [http://www.certifit.com/](http://www.certifit.com/)  
The catalog is: [http://www.certifit.com/images/catalogs/STX.pdf](http://www.certifit.com/images/catalogs/STX.pdf)

Your van is listed on page 28. It also shares the same body parts as the GMC Safari.

The part may not be _perfect_, but only the professional will be able to tell. Theyll be brand new, and will require full assembly and paint.

They don’t list the body parts on-line (at least not for yours), and they’re not in the book, either, but they’re adding parts all the time.

You can try a junkyard for Safari parts…there may be a few more of them.

Yep [car-part.com](http://car-part.com). You can search by area and will list by price condition etc. For used anyway. Prices are all over the mat though.
