So the wife wants me to seal the gaps at the rear of all 4 doors. Examined how the door pivots inward notably on the front doors and came up with an idea to test out. Got ahold of @trigger and had him send me the material he fabricated the triggershield from. The front doors will take approximately a 12" wide by 18" tall section on each side to seal off the drivers doors. Will be able to use factory push pins along the B pillars where the front of the rear door overlap and latches, the the font piece will secure on the back edge of the door with 3 or 4 push pins. The rubber material should easily allow for the movement while being water and wind proof.

Red outline approximately area covered by material, yellow is attachment points, orange is cutouts needed. will need to make a flexible bar top and bottom to keep material pressed against the rear door to aid in sealing and keeping the front edge in place when closed. The inside of the front door pivots about 3" inward upon opening, then flush when closed.

Rear door will seal in similar manner as front except all push pins will be along inside door hinge area.

I did the same thing to @Ron-P-jr buggy, I'll see if I can find the pics.
It really help with the cold air & water intrusion when riding in the fall
