Something that sounds technical, but it's not.

I have a set on order also. It looks like the 2 middle bars bow slightly outward?
Did you have to install the hinges and adjust.
How was the fit and finish?
How are the latching areas, smooth operation?
Thanks

The middle bars do bow out. It makes the Jeep feel bigger than with the regular doors. The hinges come loosely mounted to the doors. I had to put the doors on, and lift up on the back end to get them to latch properly, and then tighten the 2 torx bolts on the hinges. There’s also an adjustable screw with a rubber stopper to adjust so they don’t rattle. I’m going out for a drive in a bit, so I’ll see how that experience is.

Love to hear what you think on the road. How smooth is the latching areas?

Your rig looks sharp with those!! I also have these on order.

Do/did the doors come with mounting brackets / mount-points for the Mopar mirrors like they have been advertising for a year and a half? I know you must buy the mirrors separately.

They don’t appear to have any mounting points for the mirrors. I’d imagine the mounting bracket clamps around the tubes and screws clamp it tight. I’m glad there aren’t brackets that would look like I was missing something!

@AllMoparParts.com What is Mopar recommending for external mirrors? I had assumed it would have been the standard JL manual mirrors #82215138 but there seems to be no mount-points on the tubes.
