Just a simple tip - put a couple layers of tape on the door edges, fenders and door opening to protect your paint. Real easy to slip and chip your new paint.

i just put a pass door on mine. i taped the jamb and put a piece of cardboard all the way across the rocker. the cardboard helped the back of the door from sagging too. i got it all gapped up nice in about 10 minutes. this was an OEM door and i've put aftermarket on before and it took a little more time to do.
