Default More half doors

Had some doors laying around from a 4 door I parted out some time ago so I started some half doors yesterday.........more or less to practice before I do some for the 2 door. Not sure if I'm gonna keep or sell them when I'm done though.

Instead of having to deal with the inner panel and all it's bumps and holes I decided to just go ahead and cut it out completely and use 16GA sheet instead. Much less work involved in my eyes.

How do you plan to run your lock and handle/opener? I had a set I made before that locked and everything but only opened from the inside so you just had to reach in and pull a handle. I gave them to a buddy when I sold my XJ but just got an XJ so time to make more soon!!
