How can I make my doors where I can quickly remove and reinstall them for summer time wheeling and cruising? Could someone help? Thanks..

ya i wanna do all 4 but then i wont have mirrors on the side either and wouldnt know what to do with the wires for the speakers. i would think there would be some way that you can make it so you can just plug it back everytime you put them back on

Yeah I'm going to make a plug so I can. And I'm thinking the mirror deal u could get some cheap old style ones and mount on the "a" pillar by the windshield. I'm thinking that's what I'm gonna do. I'm going to go exo cage soon to. So I may mount some that hang down.

ok fellas for the speaker problem i have a pretty good set up i believe. so who doesnt like to listen to music when your running doorless??? not me. so...... i took 2 old house speakers tweeters and all. ripped out the door speakers cuz mine were blown. so no electrical in the doors now. on the bottom of your dash the runner piece. there are two "vent" looking deals on both ends. on some models these were used for tweeters. so you take the old house speakers and put them on the back side of the vent deals. i cut a hole in my runner piece and installed the tweeter there but it looks really ghetto. but if i was to do it again i would install the tweeter in the A piller plastics. if you need pictures i can probably find some for ya

For the mirrors I used a like a 5 in dish mirror like on semis, and put a long bolt and velcro, the bolt goes in the pin location when doors r off and velcro were it contact the jam to keep it from moving around works pretty good
