Installing Tubular Door Hardware
Before removing your door, you first need to install the door hinges on the tube doors. To do so locate 2 down position hinges, line them up to the holes in the hinge with the holes on the tubular door. Using a $5 allen head wrench install 4 mounting bolts, friction washers and nuts. Then using the bolts, nuts and washers install the mirrors, and door stopper.

Removal of Factory Front Doors
To remove your factory front doors, use the T50 torx socket to remove the 2 bolts attached to the bottom of the hinges on the front doors. Inside the door by the kick panel area unclip the wiring harness that is attached to the door. Lift off the door stopper and life the door off the hinges and set aside.
