Yeah, I'm not sure they care much. I rode all summer in my unlimited with no doors (4) with no problems. Even pulled up next to a few cops that just waived.

Just bought a 2012 2 door, can't wait to get the doors off!

I use tube doors all summer in Seattle no problems.

But yeah, Little Naches with no doors = gritty teeth for weeks and better put goggles on before you blast that vent!

^^ What doors are those? Do they stick out much or are they flush with the body?

Why wait??? The other day I saw an older Jeep with only half-metal doors; no top; no side/back windows, etc. Not even a windjammer! He was headed north on Nevada at a good clip (maybe he was cold?).

Rugged Ridge. They don't stick out much, maybe 1/2" because the tubing is very thick.
At least they don't rattle. The first set had the mounting hangers welded off by a bit, sent a new set and it's been fine.

Thanks. I'm trying to deside what tube doors I want and those look pretty good. Def. an option.
