So are you making a 10A clone out of a 2012 Rubi, or just doing the hood? Pretty cool either way.

Correct!

I have an 08 Rubicon. It has '12 seats + the artic edition headrests (black "leather" with orange stitching).

Now it has the 10A hood, decals and side emblems. Plus, it's getting a '12 factory color.

The jeep has 13K miles. I bet there are 12s out here with more miles than mine!

Plus my 08 has had most rubicon parts removed:
Suspension, wheels, tires, shocks, bumpers, sliders, axles, etc..

Does anyone have an '11 or newer rig with half doors? If so, could you please post a picture of your door interior so I can compare the panels to my 08s?

I swore I saw a thread on this and it showed the same as the older ones but I am struggling to find it right now. I have not seen many 12-13's with half-doors. I remember someone posting a picture from the manual with updated skins. I am gonna keep searching...

Are you changing the dash too? Can't wait to see pictures of it!

Probably door interiors and the center console.

I spoke with a guy in the midwest doing a complete conversion through a dealer and asked him to provide me all the part numbers.

I don't know if I'd want to deal with the mileage hassle from a smog, registration or DMV issue. My dealer was able to order everything I needed so far off of part numbers I was able to find. Plus, he runs out to look at the 10A on his showroom floor when I can't find something.

If you locate the half door thread it would be greatly appreciated since I couldn't find anything.

I found the one I was thinking of it and it has grown.

https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/stoc...-panel-219309/

There are pictures of 12's and they look exactly like my 08. Maybe the 13's are different.
Seems like somewhere in the thread someone posted pictures from the owner's manual, have not found that yet...

Thanks! I posted over in the thread asking about updates. The prices listed seem cheap (about 100 per door). I may try and order one to see how it works. However, the actual pic I saw looked like mine, but in all black...
