RE: T-top and vert doors
I can help with that when i get back to my car (Thursday) if you want me to. Just tell me what you are looking for and I will see what i can to. One thing that I don't think has been mentioned and you might want to consider it the increase noise from wind. even with thick weather stripping you are going to get some of that noise us vert guys have grown used to. I don;t think it will be as bad as if it was a vert, just worse then in a normal coupe.

RE: T-top and vert doors
yeah cool man. basically i want to make sure the actual doors are the same size as the doors on my ride. i need like a horizontal length measurement from the longest most points of the door, a vertical height measurement, and a width measurement of the door jams. i'm not real worried about wind noise, ive been driving my stang for about 4 months now which has no radio, dumps, and no interior.lol just parked her and got back into my dd. if you guys thonk i need any other measurements just chime in.

RE: T-top and vert doors
OK, so I took some measurements for ya. got7 total, if these match it should be the same door. From the back(Door handle side) of the door Bottom corner to top window corner 37 5/8" that was an inside measurement since the door curves outward. From top of door trim to bottom corner 23.5" (Also inside measure). now for lneght. Bottom of door 50 3/8" corner to corner. Top of door trim in middle of door 53.5", top of door 47.25" and top of window 24.5". Door thickness was hard to get exact for but it looks like 4.75" or so. If ya need anything else just drop me a line

RE: T-top and vert doors
you know all you have to do it saw off the top of the doors and you
have t-top/vert doors, just need to find the end cap pieces for the change over, you will need to use top/vert weatherstripping on the front and rear leading edges of the glass to do so to fill the gaps a friend did that to his mustang several years ago , just find a parts car to get that stuff first and just use the doors you have to save $ $ |
RE: T-top and vert doors
I know for a fact that the t top door glass and the vert door glass are very different.

RE: T-top and vert doors
My old t-top leaked like a sieve around the top and sides of the windows. It was a real PITA after a rain or washing the car. It may be a cool idea, but practically ... I'd think twice about giving yourself the aggrivation of the leaks without the benefit of a full t-top/ vert. I hope you live in the desert.
