Finally Jumped on the Doorless Bandwagon

Well, after months of procrastination, I used Father's Day weekend to make my doors removable. It was one of the few projects that I've done in recent years that hasn't caused me any grief in the process. I must say that I'm pleased with the outcome and that it's uberfun to drive around without doors. I'll take/post pictures this weekend since I wasn't able to get many while I was working on

UPDATE:
Here are the pictures that I promised too long ago.

One of my friends cutting off the passenger side pins.


Me putting the hinges back on the door


Here's what the pins look like that I made. I used 5/16" bolts rather than 8 mm because we had a bunch in the garage. I cut them down, rounded off the heads, and drilled a 3/32" (I think) hole for the clips.


Look, no doors!


Finally, a terribly blurry picture of the door on with the new pins

Albeit a random question, the answer is no.
