Default Bestop Superdoors

These look like a pretty cool setup for summer time and I was wondering if anyone out there is running them? How do they fit? How do they seal when closed?

You are gonna get responses covering all ends of the spectrum on this.

I have the 2dr and after lots of fine tuning they fit good, no flapping on highway, no leaks, I love them. So easy to pull them off when off work to be doorless for the ride home, and just as easy to throw them on if a sudden storm pops up.

Do they seal good?.....not to the point where you can drive in water up the middle of them....they will let water in around the seals. For everyday driving and rain they are good though.

Many have had problems with the fit, and it was a pain to get them right for me, but well worth the effort IMO.

I think if you want something for easy on off and some protection from rain, this is the way to go. If you are looking for a replacement door from the hard ones...you will be dissapointed.

Cool! Thanks for the input! I'll be running hard doors here for at least 7 months out of the year as it snows Oct through April, but want an easy on-off door for summer wheelin. What did you have to do to get yours to seal properly?

BaltChief nailed it! Totally depends on your expectations. They do flap a bit, no they dont seal perfectly, you have to live with plastic windows and they're not cheap. BUT they are very very versatile so I totally love mine.
...especially since I was lucky enough to bag a used set here!!

I would make an adjustment, drive it, make an adjustment, drive it....etc

This went on for a week until they finally fit right.
