When I have the doors off, I love to put my left foot out there on the running board... but only when I'm on a wide road without too much traffic... I see too many people on a regular basis that are distracted and either hug the yellow line or drift over it to risk my leg when they're around!

I told my wife that it's safer for her to put her right foot out rather than resting her feet up on the dash like she does. I told her she would look awfully funny with an air bag up her ass if I hit anything.

Are you kidding? I love hanging my foot out when the doors are off. I actually don't hang it all out, I sort of prop my foot into the front corner of the doorframe and rest my foot on the bottom hinge. Perfection!

I have a set of pegs that I bought from a guy how machined them from aluminum they bolt to the bottum door hinge. Every time I take the door off the pegs go on.. So I can hang my foot out comfortably..

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.
You can mount them sideways with just a nut bolt and washers, I'll get a pic Tues after work. The bracket i'm making is so that you can mount it they way it is on a bike and be able to fold it up.

Today I introduced my new carpool to the pleasures of no top/no doors commuting.
