I'm about to pick up a drivers door for my convertible that came off a t-top. The parts guy says just the glass is different. Is this correct?

There are a few other minor differences depending on the year of he original and replacement but the major difference is indeed the glass. Glass is not interchangeable between T-roof and convertible.

If you are replacing a rusted/dented/etc door with the T-top door, just swap all your internal parts and pieces including the glass from the original door into the T-top shell and you should be good.
That assumes your donor door is a 81-86 model. If the donor door is from an 87/88 there are some differences compared to the the Four Eyed models. Good Luck!
