thanks!

Yeah I am going to use the factory latch and everything inside the door including speakers ect. that makes finding parts easy and I can still use keyless to activate my alarm, and lock/unlock my doors. I am ecsited to get them going, next summer will be nice with them!

I am going to use a plastic backing and flush it all off. but I am still going to have power locks, inner door handle, and the speaker. So I need something removable. But may skin part of it and then make a inner panel for the rest. going to work/brain storm on that part tomorrow...

Haha it was a LOT easier then your 90amp, But would did burn threw a little on me and I really haven't used yours. The pics are taken after I ground and buffed them But I set it for 20G steer and turned the wire speed up a little and just kept it moving lol

But I think Mig and flux welding are two different beasts. The Mig seams more idiot proof! lol

Also debating putting a cup holder in the center of the top on the doorl. would be cool, functional, but I don't really need it lol

Sweat doors I want some. Is there a reason for not cutting off the top window frame part. I mean I guess it looks cleaner mounted, but I just feel like I would want to cut it off.

I think it horrible, and makes me think the person who made them was lazy lol. I don't like having the half door jam showing, or any of it really, I figure if your going to show the door jam might as well just be doorless.... lol

I personally would have cut the top half off, but this will match the clean look of your rig better! Guess I just like cutting stuff... haha
