Saloon Bonnet on a Hatch

Hi i've had a look through tons of threads and just wanted to know if a saloon bonnet will my Lsi Hatch. I know many try the other way round .The lacquer on mine is coming off in bonnet length patches and i haven't found decent Milano Red hatch panels anywhere.

I'm trying to hold off a respray for a few months but the bonnet is down to bare paint now and rust is just starting.

There's a Red saloon 94 Lsi in good condition just mechancial issues at the local breakers . I bought a factory new wing to be sprayed as the old one is rusty now anyway and bumper is peeling too but only plastic so not urgent.

Its a basic run around at the moment that i might fully respray later in the year as it has various other bodywork niggles so i'm not fussed for now about fitment or looks just keeping rust at bay.

I know it'll be longer than the hatch but aslong as it bolts on the same and the catch works on the front its fine.

Yes, It will bolt on fine and will catch on the hood latch as well.
