Great Doors -- But PLEASE Read This...
By Jeff Kraus
These doors are fantastic. They fit perfectly, they require only minimal assembly the first time, they are light, and they look awesome. And if that's not enough to sell you, the sheer number of options for them is amazing. They make storage bags that hang on the doors. They make a solid, black powder coated panel that fits on the outside, effectively turning them into half doors. One popular Jeep parts shop offers an exclusive option -- those same exterior panels, only color matched to your paint! They make mirrors so if you want mirrors, you don't have to keep swapping out the stock ones (the stock mirrors do fit these tube doors if you wish). They even make soft uppers, so together with the exterior panels you can have protection from the elements! The tube doors come with matched locks, and two keys. They're not exactly bulletproof, but they don't need to be. It's not like a lock will do a whole lot of good when you can just hop over the doors.

The possibilities are seemingly endless (well, certainly not "endless", but my bank account would run out before the options do).

One downside to these doors that I've found so far is that there is a little bit of play in the latches after the door is closed. The spring allows the latch to travel just slightly past the point where it grabs. And that's perfectly fine -- except any time you go over a bump that's big enough to overcome the strength of that spring, you'll hear the doors rattle a bit. Not a major problem, but worth mentioning.

And then there was one thing that I didn't really expect -- for some reason, people find the tube doors to be WAY cooler than running without doors at all. I've never gotten a comment on the street when running without doors. But in the first 5 minutes of driving with the tube doors (a quick trip to the grocery store and back), I got one "Nice Jeep!" yelled at me, one thumbs-up approval, and one honk from a pickup truc k (which I assume was intended as a good thing).

I will add some additional photos of these doors installed on my 2011 Sport as soon as I can.

So here's why I said "PLEASE read this" in the title. It's an important bit of information for potential buyers. First, at the time of my purchase the only available photo of the doors had a storage bag and what looked like some soft uppers in the bag. None of that is included in this price. Seems obvious to most, I'm sure. But I just wanted to put it out there.

Also, (again, as of this writing) the description states "Includes optional heavy duty storage pockets that can be positioned either inside the vehcile or outside". This is also incorrect. It does NOT include the optional storage bags. The storage bags are sold separately, here: Bestop Element Storage Bags. Again, if you have done any research on these doors, you'd know that for the price, you couldn't expect to get the doors AND the b ags. But I just wanted to make sure it was clear.

Finally, shipping. I did not lower my rating based on my experience with the shipping because that has nothing to do with the product itself. But these doors were riddled with scratches and marks where the powder coat had come off from rubbing against each other. From a few feet away they look great, but there are several spots where it's really bad. Of course, returning a set of doors is bound to be a severe pain, so I'll probably just get some touch-up paint and cover the marks. I really wasn't happy about that, and they certainly could have been packaged better.

a few things to know... including door rattle fix
By LA Mao
just got these yesterday. the other reviewer was right that they attract compliments more than anything else on the jeep - i've already gotten two just driving down the road... today.

the description that amazon provides of 'included' storage bags is WRONG. but at $300, that is not surprising.

the packaging was fine for me. no scratches or any of the other problems i saw in the prior reviews.

the one issue of these is that the doors rattle. but the fix is easy. just get some duct tape and cut a small strip to wrap around the factory door striker bar a few times. then the latch doesn't make the rattling noise when you are driving.

Good buy
By Chazcc
I bought these mainly to deter people from jumping in my Jeep when my doors are off. Seems to work fine! They did rattle at first but if you put some weight on them when they're open, you'll bend it in a way that makes the latch more secure causing less rattle.
