How do they look?

Unfortunately I have not been able to unbox and assemble them yet. I opened the box to make sure there was no damage and they seem very durable with thick weather seals. There are a couple pics on Bestop's website on a JLU, they will fit the same on the JT. I'll post some pics after I get these assembles (door handles) and on the JT.

My doors arrived yesterday via Fed Ex. I ordered them on the 9th, the fronts stated "This product is on backorder and will be available within 7 to 10 business days" and the backs stated "Pre-Order". Both the fronts and backs arrived yesterday on the 12th just 3 days after placing the order.

Great. Glad they arrived!

We've got small quantities of both black diamond and black twill in stock right now. If you select Black Twill fronts you'll see a backorder message but we have a few in stock so they should ship fairly quickly.

Let me know how install goes. I have a set as well but haven't had a chance to get onto Jeep. The instructions for the handles seem weird to me.. as it looks as though they sit inside the doors

I have the handles on and that was fairly straight forward. On the fronts the spacer and handle sits on the inside with the metal plate on the outside. On the rears you have to slip the handle through the opening from the outside and attach it directly to the door. You have to cut the fabric where the screws go through and leave everything hose so you can adjust them to fit properly on the Jeep.

That's how I installed also.. but handles sitting inside differs from the picture they have on the site that's all

I know Bestop recommends using their TJ mirrors with these doors, but there are multiple styles. What specific model number of mirrors do you recommend with these fabric doors...thanks!

We recommend our HighRock 4x4 Mirror Replacement Set for the 2-Piece Fabric Doors for the JL/JT .

That said, I'm triple checking that the mirror part number you need is 5126101 (the TJ version). It will be likely tomorrow before I have confirmation, but I'll post again as soon as I have it.

For what it's worth, both styles of foctory TJ mirrors attach to the door the same way.

Confirmed. The HighRock 4x4 Mirror Replacement Set (5126101) is what you need. Unfortunately, we don't have them in stock right now, and with all the shenanigans going on, we likely won't have them super soon.

It looks like Morris 4x4 Center, Quadratec, and Amazon have them in stock, so if the timing is critical, these dealers should be able to help.

Hope this helps!

So, I managed to get the front doors installed (the handles were a little tricky, and closing takes some muscle to get the latch at the correct height for the door frame receiver). However, I'm glad y'all are brining up the mirrors- I have the HighRock 4x4 set, but cannot figure out how/where to mount them to the soft door. Yes, I am mechanically stunted (hence the challenge with the handles), but can someone please help guide me for mirror installation?

There is a flat plate at the front edge of the door (right below the window post) and, although you can't see them, there are holes drilled in this plate. I would assume that is where the mirrors mount but I can't state that with 100% certainty as I haven't gotten my mirrors yet.

The recommend @Bestop mirror doesn't work. It overlaps the velcro where the upper and lower door meets.
