Default half door help

i tried asking on the custom page but very little response and no body provided the info needed

Looking to make some homemade half doors. I want to be able to use factory (soft) uppers. My thought being if factory uppers will fit then so will after market. That being said it doesn’t seem that bestop makes aftermarket replacements. so i have two questions:

1- is my assumption correct :if factory upper doors fit then there is someone that makes an aftermarket that fits

2-anyone have any photos/measurements/plans of factory half door so I can get a good look at what the top (where you would rest your arm) of the door needs to look like. as far as where the mounting holes need to be in relation to the A post and B post. and how wide it needs to be to properly attach

I could buy factory uppers anticipating an after market set coming in the future but knowing mopar I would need to give them $4000, a kidney, and 6 pints of blood in order to purchase them


thanks

Check out Quadratec. You can get a set of MOPAR factory half doors, upper half for the doors and the interior door panels for $1,600.

i understand i can buy the half doors. i just don't want to. i am going to make my own. i just want the location of the holes where the upper half would mount, and or any advice as to where i should add extra holes (for aftermarket upper doors)
