Joe,
Just looked and my hole looks the same as
yours.  It has rounding on front and back
edges but the hole looks widened..
strange!  I=E2=80=99ve never noticed that.  My door
has narrowed width on the aft side but does
still cover the hole.  Like Ron said, you may
have an early series Alpine door?
