Where are the spot welds on the rear quarterpanel for a 90' 240sx?

I'm going to drill out the spot welds, and then weld a new quarterpanel in, I need to know where the spot welds are. Very detailed explaination would be nice.

And would quarterpanels from a 89' work on a 90'?

not to be rude or anything BUT if you cant find the spot weld for the QP you probably shoudnt be changing it urself....

but if you look in the door jam u will see some...then take out the quarter window...u will see more...then tak out the bumper cover u will see more...and at the bottom there will be more...

I'm having a friend who is good at welding do it. I just have no idea what a spot weld is, or what it looks like. If i take my car to him to have him drill out the welds and weld a new quarter in I want him to know where they are.

One qp has unrepairable damage, other qp has a giant dent but it is pretty deep and big. I am NOT doing overfenders or a wide body or bondo. Could I cut the fenders off an 89' and weld them in place of mine? (mine is a 90). Please answer that. Thx
