I have several of the Guarder tactical grips. They come with trigger, mag release and hammer spring, and all of them have been direct fits to the tokyo marui hi capas I own.

Guarder also does an enhanced grip. It is the same style as the factory grip but is made of a nicer polymer, and has no internals. I assumed that because the tactical grips by Guarder have been a direct fit, the same would be true of the enhanced grip, but I checked with AI just to make sure, and was warned that they would probably require some work to fit.

Frankly, knowing how AI works, I was inclined to disbelieve the answer; tawling throush the web, AI will be aware that some Guarder metal products are not always a direct fit and probably assumes this is also true of polymer grips. I wondered if any members on here owned one of the enhanced grips and if they would care to share their experiences.
 
With the TM Hi-Capa, you should get a direct fit if the Guarder grip names the TM Hi-Capa specifically though you may have to use all the parts of the kit for it to work. With third-party Hi-Capas, it is a minefield as some are built to TM spec and some are more like their own ecosystem with a handful of TM compatible parts.

If I remember correctly, the Hi-Capa DOR has the most compatibility problems with third-party accessories but that's because of the slide and not the grip.
