P500 A little differant take on doors

[iowaguy]

Today I made doors out of some 1/4 plastic I had left over from making the rear seats,I don't want to take anything away from Jak ,I think the doors he makes are a great idea,I just wanted something simple and functional for me that fit inside the roll cage so I wouldn't have to worry about catching them on anything.I also didn't want them to come in contact any where on the sxs ,I can't stand rattle's and vibration, I'm not saying the doors jak makes do,I just know mine don't,I used a piano hinge, and a 3/8" chain link cut in 1/2 for the latch

Iowa, nice work buddy really nice indeed! Thanks so much for sharing pix, doors look awesome and like how you integrated them into the stock latch! Machine warmer now, I'm thinking it should be noticeably better.

Thanks again for sharing.

looks pretty good, I like it when you can frabricate something different that makes it yours.

In your thread I noticed you talked about modifying your doors, and I think these might be able to accommodate the nets for those that still want to use them,if this gives you any idea's, go for it, if you don't someone else will, this is the same concept as what I have seen on Polaris Rangers,I hope you don't think I posted this thread to take anything away from your doors, you are a man of endless talents.

That's the first thing I noticed when I looked at your doors. I think you could set up the nets.

@iowaguy yet again nice job! That's a good idea and I really like how they sit smooth for catchless riding and should take good hits that's a very important thing

I took mine off when I unloaded it the day I bought it, My wife doesn't know it came with nets.

 

[CumminsPusher]

Nets? My daughter started taking those off directly from the dealership lol

Hey Iowa that would still look good cruising through the woods in Idaho especially with those doors!

I was thinking about getting bigger nets! My face still gets hit with branches through the gap left by the factory nets.
