For me it is more about the trails...but you never know, I might want a summer cruise doorless.
If it IS illegal, ask about TUBE doors on an XJ....

yeah, I don't want to wheel doorless, Not too keen on rock climbing too much, maybe later though, after I get sliders. I want it for riding on the road, I hate using AC

Its not a ticket anyway even if it was illegal, its a safety citation which doesnt go on your record since its against a registration number not a soundex number.....

§ 23-104. Minimum standards for equipment.
(a) Equipment enumerated.- Every vehicle driven on the highways in this State shall, where applicable, have the following equipment, meeting or exceeding the standards established jointly by the Administration and the Division: brakes, steering, suspension, horn, door handles, mirrors, tires, exhaust system, lights, glazing, windshield wipers, odometer, speedometer, bumpers, properly aligned wheels, wheels and wheel lugs, fenders, floor pans, hood, hood catches, emissions equipment, fuel system, front seat, motor mounts, gear selection indicator for automatic transmissions, universal joints, and seat belts or combination seat belt-shoulder harness if required as original equipment under § 22-412 or § 22-412.1 of this article.
The bottom line is: its illegal to have doors and no handles, but if you don't have doors how can you have handles? Bikes don't have door handles....

How come it says door handles and not doors? Is that just to cover the fact that if the law states door handles, it covers doors too? And the mirrors can be gotten over, by mounting a set on your A pillar.

because emergency personnel have to be able to get you out of the car if the door is shut.... It doesnt say doors because its not a law to have doors, only door handles if you have doors.
