You can cut the hinge pins with a dremel. THat is what I did. Take a hammer and chissel and remove the hard plastic from around the hinge pins. Remove the kick panel inside you jeep and unplug the 3 wires (4 on passenger side) the connect to the door. Break off the clips for easier install/ uninstall in the future. Take a dremel with cut off wheel and cut your hinge pins. hammer them out. Replace with 5/16 bolts. Thats it!

I did it and I'm no professional. If you have the tools to do some cutting and a little patience you can go doorless pretty simply. Do a lot of research
