Piece of cake...

4 - 10mm bolts and the connector needs a T-25 Torx to remove. Takes less than 5 minutes.

Just add a mirror... Putting the doors back is easier with a second person, but can be done by one if you have to. And the bolts aren't even alignment critical. Almost like Jeep EXPECTED us to pull the doors.

so you just unbolt them and then bolt them back on instead of making hinges

Was looking at this too for my 95, but it's the DD so I've been hesitant to cut into the hinges. I'll check out that site too.

Don 't cut the hindges. Unbolted the wire harness at the door. Then unbolt the door. No reason to cut.
