Been looking for a set of Sting-Gray half doors for my 2-door Sport with manual locks. Although I haven't found any in this color, every set I've come across has power locks, which I obviously don't need. Is this standard on all half doors, or do they also exist with manual locks?

I'm pretty sure that adding half doors to an order also added power locks and mirrors IIRC. So, I don't think it's an option to have manual locks. I do know that the blind spot monitoring is a variable as the set of half doors I bought came off a Willys without it and I get a warning that it's unavailable after start up on my Rubicon. I don't mind enough to swap the correct set of mirrors and a new wiring harness into the doors tho.

I have a pretty base Willys sport. Half doors changed it to power locks & mirrors. Wasn’t an option on the 2022’s to keep the manual locks

Thanks for all the feedback on this topic. While power locks are obviously useless for me, they definitely won't prevent me from buying half doors. It's actually nice to not fiddle with the door's electrical connections anyway.

Just curious, do your full doors also have power locks? or are they manual locks like the standard Willys sport doors.

Changed the full doors as well. I assume that way the wiring harness all stays the same. I would have left them as standard, but since it changed, I went ahead & added proximity keyless entry as well. Half doors & full doors have all the same options.

That's cool that it changes the full doors too. So, do the full doors have power locks and manual windows? Also, does the back hatch door have a power lock as well?

Changes full & half doors to electric locks, windows, & side mirrors. Of course, electric windows are not on half doors, but locks & mirrors are. Yes, tailgate door is also changed to power lock. Having prox keyless entry, I don’t have to take the key fob out of my pocket.

A half door with a key cylinder is / can be " Manual locks", but only to get in. No way to lock door from inside if not originally power locks, right ?
