Default Removable doors????

My 91 XJ is my daily, but when I'm on the trail I'd like to be able to remove my stock doors. Is there a kit for this? Or does anyone have suggestions?

I know I'll need new hinges or I'll have to fab the stock ones. What do you guys reccommend? I've got power windows and locks so I'll have to have some kind of connector. In the link in the above quote, he started out with mate-n-lock connectors but he had a problem fitting them in the boot. Could I leave the wires from the door long enough to basically store the connectors in the A pillar meaning the connection would be after the boot? And whats the best way to cut the doors in half?
