Im in Indiana incase hes wondering btw.
I was surprised they came too. No idea how long I'll have to wait for the fronts though. Maybe I can get someone to drive me around while I sit in the back!

So, its the 15th, the day most people have been told the doors would be released. Oddly enough, a Sunday.
Anyone have updates on the front doors?

Does anyone know if the pioneer can be trailered with the fabric doors on? I'm taking mine to my dealer with in the next week to get the winch and plow installed, and hopefully the doors if they came in...

As long as you have a windshield and roof of some sort I don't think it will be an issue. They are stiff and perpendicular to the airflow.
Picked up my fabric doors at the dealer yesterday. Can't put them on till Sat. Said they are trying to get heaters out by year end....we'll see

Checked at my dealer today for my doors, They had been sitting there for 2 weeks, atleast by what he said. Odd, I had called monday the 16th to check and they said they werent there. I'm just glad this was the last thing I was waiting on from them.
Installation was fairly straightforward. 4 rivets hold brackets to the door, and 1 "jackbolt" is inserted into top of door.
There are small squares to trim off of plastic edge of door to fit the 2 piece windshields.
I took a quick spin to check em out, I'm still in the middle of making mounts for the front winch/bumper so it looks a little odd.

Looks nice! Thinking of doors myself. are you satisfied with the Quality and fit? What's involved in taking them off? Looks like they have a strap to operate the door handle. The only thing I need are the doors and my cab would be enclosed but was wondering if my widows would fog up without the heater. The high temps have been in the teens lately
I think Im pretty happy with them- both front and rear.
We went out in a torrential downpour tonight, heavy winds and rain, we had 3 adults in the front, and were pretty happy with the protection. My wife rode in the middle, and had a wet leg after 20 mins or so. As did I after we parked, the water from the heavy winds ran around the glovebox, and dripped into the floor, onto our feet/legs. This could be fixed with some rubber placement though.
We were glad to stay this dry really, it was very bad out. I'm pretty happy with how they fit overall. They aren't tight like a car, but thats not the goal.
As far as removal, they are pretty quick to remove. Once you locate the mounts, the actual doors remove/install within a few minutes.

The only 2 things I noticed about the doors and useability-
Opening the door the first few times, I hit myself in the face lol. I put one hand on the window frame while I pull the latch, much less awkward.
They catch wind! They fly open if you don't hold onto the handle in strong winds.
Other then that, I'm loving the doors. I will be finding the water fittings I need to finish my heater soon, really interested to see how it does.
