Default Will a new door be able to fit inside the car for transport?
Going about 300 miles to dallas to pick up a door and trans.
Does anybody know if a front passenger door can be loaded into the interior???

Interior of what? A greyhound bus, yes. A Fiat 500, probably not.

Trans, yes.
Door, depends in what car.

I once bought two del Sol doors. Took a Toyota Sequoia to pick them up. Ended up just barely fitting them in.

Doors are pretty big once they are off the car.

If it's a 92-95 hatch YES.

Fold the rear seats down and load it through the tailgate. Plenty of room. Done it twice.

I'd say measure and go from there. You're best bet is gonna be EITHER standing up in the back seat foot well area, or MAYBE folding down rear seats but I doubt it'd fit through the trunk hole.

Remove door, drive over, buy door, install, drive home.

Just take a packing blanket and ratchet strap the door to the roof via the back windows, i would image the trans would fit in the trunk. Getting it out could be the hard part.

A complete door from an EK sedan will fit in the trunk of an EK sedan with the back seats pushed down. I've done this twice.

Test by removing a door and fitting it in the car before you leave to be sure!! But yeah on the roof is an excellent option.

put the door in the trunk. Bring some twine and an old sofa cushion (to protect the door from the trunk lid) and put it all together. I've done it before, it works good.

I fit 2 doors in my 98 civic hatchback one time. That was with the 2 front seats on. If the 92-95 civic hatch is similar in internal space to mine, you could fit the transmission by removing the passenger's seat. Make sure you bring a bunch of blankets to keep the doors from moving and scratching.

didn/t mention that my rear seats and plastics were not in the car.
