I just recently bought some shaved doors and I'm wondering if anyone has any insight on how easy or difficult it is to uninstall and install an entire door.

Thanks

Are you talking about taking the door off or are you talking about just the handles and locks?

If you take the doors off, make sure you mark the hinges and put them back on the way they came off. I am sitting here trying to adjust my hinges due to the fact that I just took off my lambo doors.

If your just talking about the handles and locks, it isn't that bad. The hardest part is doing
the fiberglass and bondo on the outside. Word of advice, put the bolts for the popper on the inside of the door, not on the outside facing the door jam. It will make life easier.

if you're trying to suggest shaving door handles and locks by just using fiberglass and bondo, you're wrong. the only proper way to shave that kind of stuff is to weld. fiberglass will very likely crack, and you'll have to do it all over again.

as for getting an entire door bolted onto your car, have a friend or two hold the door in place, tight up against the car. then, put the hinges in place and bolt those on. the door should stay, and seal up nicely. then you just have to wire up all the goodies (speaker, power windows if you have them, etc).

Yea, I forgot about that..Welding up the holes is important.
