Yes, the door glass is the same. They share many interior parts.

1971SSP is correct, the glass is the same, but don't forget that there is clear glass and original factory tinted glass. While it's not a heavy tint by any stretch, a single piece of factory tinted glass will stand out against non-tinted glass. When I bought my Road Runner, the passenger door had been replaced, and it had a factory tinted glass in it, while the rest of the car had the original clear glass. You could really tell the difference.

The tint made me think something was wrong with my paint a few times, both when it was black and again after it was blue. I had a new windshield put in and I wish I could've got an old one, cuz it sticks out with the black stripe instead of the brownish one that was on there -- whatever, it's new and after I fixed their HORRIBLE installation, no more leaks! :D
