Simon, I do believe that Series 1 door cards will fit on series 2 doors. The problem arises with the design and shape of the dashboard in relation to the door cards. Series 2 dash is a different shape and the series 2 door cards are shaped to accommodate this.

So you should be able to fit your series 1 door cards to a series 2 door if it's going onto a series 1 dashboard.

I'm sure if I am wrong somebody with more knowledge than me will correct me.

Ray.

Ray is right about this.
Either door card will fit both Mk1 and Mk2 door types.
It just looks very wrong if the door card dash moulding and dash end shape are different.
