I’m thinking of getting some half doors for summer cruising.
I like the factory half doors but searching on craigslist and eBay is a PITA for me and the chances of finding a decent set in my color are pretty slim.
So I’m looking at some of the aftermarket half doors Like Savvy aluminum or best top tube frame with fabric cover.
What works good for you guys?
Thanks
 
I'd really spend a good amount of time looking for OEM doors. Nothing aftermarket compares to them in terms of comfort or looks. Most aftermarket half doors are meant for taking a beating on the trail, not comfort or looks.
 
I like using the Bestop soft doors with added mirror brackets on the trail. Added airflow while keeping the mud spray off

I just bought a set of Bestop half doors. They aren’t here yet though. My plan is to have them in the back of my Jeep when on the trail, because they are small and light, then put them on when going home if the weather turns. For us, it’s usually unbearable heat. I travel with the top down and windows in the back, so we can quickly cover up if we need too.

I would love OEM half doors but like you said, good ones are hard to find. I knew I should have purchased that 04 Willys :)
 
I want a set of Forest Green Pearl half doors so bad!

For now I have the Bestop Element HighRock Tube Doors though. They are pretty nice and are adaptable to fit on a steel enclosure to convert into a half door, and accept a soft upper...I like them a lot, especially because they allow you to use the stock mirrors and looks good on my application wouldn't ya say?

Also one of the handles failed on me on this particular trail, where the door would not lock and stay shut on its own. When I got home I called Bestop to simply order a new handle and they sent me a new set for free! Amazing customer service again from those guys!

Those are great! If I didn't find 1/2 doors locally at a great price, I think I would buy what you have. It would be like riding without doors, but legal. Hmm, do I need a damn 3rd set of doors? Crap!
