I got this weld on kit for my car
http://sector29.com/PRODUCT_PAGES/28/28-2096-p2096.html
I like this kit because it pops out and then goes up. That's the difference between the scissor slide doors and other kits.
I'm in the military and there is a Master Sgt that works at an auto body shop in town and he is installing them for $750-$800
He does good work. I saw the work he did on another car with a bolt on version.

if you get a kit for under a grand

unless you like having your doors
drop below the door well..

Not to put a damper on any of this, and perhaps it's not of any importance to someone into this type of mod (I can't say I care for them myself), but does anyone worry at all about the safety effects of changing out a significant component to your door system?

I've been in automotive engineering for about 15 years now and I can tell you the expense of designing and testing a hinge, latch, striker, inside, and outside handle is quite complex and expensive. FMVSS requirements are quite detailed when it comes to this stuff in an effort to prevent personal injury in a serious accident. Everything has to work to keep that door closed in side impact and rollover incidents. 30g calculations have to be conducted and tested to make sure the inertia of an impact won't permit a door handle to release, hinges and latches go through routine destructive strength testing, etc.

Just wondering if anyone worries whether any of these aftermarket companies test their product to destruction (very doubtful as the expense would eliminate any possible profit margin), since they are completely changing the characteristic of the pivot point of the door.

It could be done, but I wouldnt recommend it. I forgot the company but someone put lambo doors going backwards on a supra onetime.

It's good to know that there are good lambo door kits out there for the 8.

The one kit i saw in person looked great from afar, but had pretty lousy fitment, and the door would not close properly unless you got it in exactly the right spot.
