97 Protege Need Replacement Door

Hey guys, need a bit of help figuring this out.
I've got a 1997 Mazda Protege SE and the driver side passenger door is all rusted out at the bottom. The local auto wrecker has about six Protege of varying years. I need to know specifically which years will for sure match the door size so I can go pick one up for $40.

Pic related, same as my car...
Thanks!

can't you just take your car door off and compare it directly?

No, I can't remove my car door in the front lot and run it halfway down the wrecking yard, leaving my car open for anyone to get into...

Do you not understand how an auto wrecker place works?
I would have to buy it to bring it to my car. And before you even suggest it, I CANNOT return it once purchased.

No one is free tomorrow, don't want the cars to be stripped of that door if I wait too long finding someone to help.

Right, cause door sized pieces of paper are so easy to find...
Honestly, I was hoping for a simple answer of X to Y years of cars will have compatible doors.

An '01 looks like it might fit.

Door had some variances in 00 and 01 that were there on the lot.
Might fit might mean I blow $40 on a door that won't fit...

Looking for a definitive answer, not guesses.

Thank you, shame though that newer won't work.
They were the doors in better condition.
The 98 doors both had some minor rust.
