Actually, I think XJ Wonders has leather in his wheeling rig and cloth in the driver, he says the leather dries out better if he gets them wet.

YMMV, but I would suffocate in that thing with the crank windows.

well, id say the sacrifice of having crank windows in order to have easier to remove doors for maximum air flow is worth it. Haha

x2 on that. Crank windows are fine.. especially if it's a 2-door. But crank windows on a 4-door are very inconvenient.

I'm guessing you haven't heard of the ZJ door plugs mod...

Please explain. As a 2door owner here, I would like to convert to power windows but removing my doors always makes me wait.

there's a write up somewhere. Basically you get the plugs from a zj with the infinity audio system and then match the wires up on either side and then it will be an easy plug and unplug. I don't know if you need the infinity plug for the 2 door or if you could use just the normal one.
