I think you are the second one to have them...

But, they look great

Just saw your post on the Facebook group but there are a couple who have them on here

I think they look real good but I don’t understand the utility. If that is the point than well done.

Not meaning to shit on your post, but they look like the factory doors with the windows rolled down. Probably function the same too. I do not understand the benefit in them. I do understand they’re expensive though.

They are 100% different than oem full doors with windows down. I’ll get a side by side pic

If you do this and I buy some I am blaming it all on you to my wife…

Buy her a new dog on the way from picking up the doors

We need to see it topless with those doors.

OEM half doors have always looked amazing to me plus they are a bit lighter than full doors. For me the only draw back is they are pretty pricey. Congrats on the purchase

Interesting…
I don’t like the way the rear door misses the body line at the back edge, so these aren’t for me.
But I agree: we really need to see it with the top off!

Going doorless poses problems with children, pets, stuff all flopping out. Also makes deep water or mud crossings it's own specific slice of hell. Tube doors help with keeping stuff in but not out. Half doors are designed to keep stuff in and out as well as provide good weather sealing.

From my use the major advantage is you can hang out of the opening like you were doorless while still having a degree of protection from the situation.

That bothers me as well. On the JK the half door met the break line very well, this feels like another situation where jeep has dragged it out forever only to fail on 5yd line.

I agree, take that top off and do a comparison from 90* to the truck, these leading and trailing angle shots look great on the 'gram but I want some good engineering shots.

Half doors are one of those things you don’t really understand until you have them, and then go wheeling IMO. I didn’t love them until then and now I can’t wait to have a set again on my (new) two door. I have them for the JK as well.

that said I don’t think I’ll get them for the gladiator— likely just stick with tube doors.

Damn looks good. I was dying to see someone with a soft top with them.
