I would love to have a set of roadster(half) doors on my 96 dakota. I just dunno how to handle the hinges so I can just lift the doors off and on like a wrangler. I wouldnt mind bolting them on, but dont wanna have to take the fenders off to do so. Has it been done or is it possible?

My doors are pinned using a ford hinge pin repair kit. I took the factory hinges and drilled them for the pin and bronze bushings that came in the kit and used a two pin connector for the speakers. It is a Help kit I think the number is 38395. Here is a link.

Not sure if it would help you any, but you may want to check out how fiberglass/carbon fiber doors are held onto drag cars. They basically have 2 dowel pins that are permanent to the chassis(you could make yours a bolt on version), and then the door has 2 "circles", which are formed by a short piece of tubing turned vertical, and the 2 pieces of tubing sit onto the dowel pins, and the door pivots on them. The rear of the door is held in place by a factroy style striker.
Heres a picture of a friend of mines pro stock cavalier. If you look just in front of the door opening, you will see a vertical piece of tubing with the two dowels welded to it. You could make the same setup, but make it boltable, so you could remove it.

Sweet idea. I will be adding this to my "details" section to my 1/2door plans. Killer idea. :smokin:

The wires are already on a plug though, so why even mess with that?
