Default Body Armor Trail Doors

Anyone running them? Like the look of the cargo nets and am looking to buy but have a few questions about them for those that have been running them.

Questions I've got is how to they latch, do they have a limiting strap, are the Body Armor mirrors for them worth it and any major rattles/loose fit?

i have them .. i love them.. i think they are the best looking tube door.. they have a real nice latch... might have to adjust your striker plate alittle to get them to latch proper..and one of mine scraped alittle on the hinge on the jeep.... but other than that work great ! i used some flat black Harley davsion mirrors with mine.. the body armor one look nice.. but alittle pricey... and yes their is a limiting strap to keep them from swinging all the way open.. but i found the strap alittle short.. but over all i really like them

Very sweet JK! Do you have any better shots of the doors? How do you like your Spyderlocks?

The latching mechanism is very solid. It double locks up and is secure. A lot of adjustabilty in the latch so you get a good fit. I haven't purchased mirrors yet.
I would agree that the limiting strap is a little short but not a problem and if it was it's an easy fix.
The doors are very solid and look great.
I would definitely recommend the doors and would buy them again.
Good luck.

I just got a set of the Or-Fab doors---They are a blast...and they have the double click locking mechanism. Also adjustable on both the lock and hinge sides.

Not quite as pretty as the others...but very good fit and finish.

I LOVE to see our doors on a rig that gets used!!! Having users like you use our gear makes for good advertising. PM sent to you.

I dig the OR Fab doors just not the damned gecko on the side. That's the only reason I don't own them already...
