Default Hanging your foot out

Just curious how many here hang their foot outside the Jeep while driving or riding?
I myself love the wind between my toes.

I have a Harley foot peg on my bottom hinge, Harley mirror in the top one. In the process of making a bracket so I can fold the peg up when I'm not using it, just like the passenger pegs on a bike.

i even get a few Harley waves like that, gotta wave down and out the door for them.

any extra work to get the peg in, or just fit like the mirrors do?

Any Pics?

That's what i've been thinking of.

i love the foot out, but usually take the flip flop off i'm wearing, but then the bare door hinge isn't too comfy to put my precious little bare foot on.

Somewhere I saw that pic of a foot peg on the side, maybe it was from the Q-tech catalog?. I thought it was pretty cool but some folks were ragging on it pretty hard. I think it was a bolt-on to the body though.

I guess I'm gonna vote only on the back roads, although the traffic doesn't make me nervous. I just don't have a foot peg like you guys

Way easy
take out the nut at the bottom of the hinge, disconnect the wiring harness, undo the strap and lift off the door. the hard part is forcing yourself to put them back on!
