SCab & RCab doors same size???

I have an 06 SCab. I ordered vent visors (2 piece) from Cablea's for a RCab since I only want to put them on the doors. Here is the problem. Cabela's sent me a 4 piece set for a Screw. They won't fit the front doors because the Screw door is smaller than the SCab door.

I want to make sure the RCab door and the Scab door are the same size before I send these back for exchange.

Thanks

Regular cab has the same size front door as a SCrew. Unfortunately, regular cab visors won't fit your SCab.

Unfortunately as part of the illusion to make the regular cab look larger with the suicide doors, they made the front doors small.

That's an odd thing to say???
The doors on the regular cab, if they were ten inches longer like on the Supercab it would be impossible to make the rear doors, so you would have to either eliminate the rear area, going back to the old style design, or only access part of it.

The doors are full size.

Front door of supercrew is 43.5 inches.

Front door of Supercab is 50 inches.

I don't know about the regular cab.

I know that when I test drove a Screw I had to lean forward to look out the side window. In my Scab I can just glance to the side with no problem. I like the longer door.

Sounds like you need to tell them what cab you have, and let them pay the return shipping if they mess it up again.

I like the shorter door because my head is back behind the pillar, and I have to lean forward to look out. People can't see my ugly @ss face, this way.

The short doors are so much nicer for parking, and in the garage......it ain't even funny.

Let's hear it for the 'short doors'!

Parking garage? I live in the sticks, and work downtown, but we have a parking lot. But seriously, I know what you mean about the benefits of short doors. If I had short legs I wouldn't have to worry about the drawbacks of short doors either. Fortunately, I'm trim in addition to being tall, so I can squeeze out of the long doors' small openings. Win/win.

Regular cab and Crew cab share a common front door.
Super cab gets its own unique front door.
