Those doors are awesome. I wish I could weld.

On the topic of locking your doors vs not locking your doors.... After my Jeep was broken into for the 7th time (By breaking various windows), I decided to stop locking my doors. Last Wednesday some decided he wanted to own the Eastern on my back seat, so he threw a brick through my window. Bottom line: Criminals are dumb.... even though the doors were all unlocked, he still assumed they were locked and proceeded to break the window. Breaking the window alerted me to come outside, see what was going on, and chase him down the street. He is now facing charges of grand larceny (Bike is valued at over $1200), disorderly conduct, trespassing, vandalism, and attempted burglary of a vehicle. On top of his list of pending charges, he also has a broken face.

The work to open the doors from the inside and the locks still work.

I may do a build thread if I get enough interest.

I would like to see a build thread. My biggest question is how did you do the upper part and how is it attached.

I know this comment and thread is old but when it rains...or gets below 70 degrees, I put back on my other doors. Still have the stock ones. Power windows and everything.
