That might be a solution but I've never seen it done before. Might give it a go myself.

unsure on the hatches, you'll need to check with the manufacturers.

So your just going to have a single piece of poly carb?

You can see the sort of polycarb kits on offer here: http://www.minidoor....eetfighter.html

So if i can't have mk1 sliding ones, i'd have to get the fixed piece with the sliding hatch....

With your doors les, is there a hole at the top of the skin for the glass like the TDK ones show here:



Because if so, whats the poly carb meant to sit on? Or how is it held in?

Just been on ABS website and they have the same pictures for these doors as TDK racing so does TDK buy from ABS or the other way around?

has anyone got a link to the arc angels doors?

i noticed them on ebay a few times for 149.99 a pair. but i dont know if they are the race versions or the stronger road versions. if it was the road versions i will be tempted to buy them.

Yeah i saw those, it was a special offer...

Im also looking at doing fibreglass doors on my Mini, and i've decided i definitely want Arc-Angel Doors, and ive been looking at plastics 4 performance for the windows, im buying all new lock/latches for the doors and im also using the arc angels door mechanism to fit them, however for the poly windows im thinking of getting the drivers side with a hatch and passengers side with just a plain poly window.

One of my main worries is the same as mikes, im not quite too sure on how im going to get the windows to stay in the door. My car never comes out in the rain anyway, but id still prefer to have the original seals if i could. Has anyone got any suggestions without me having to drill holes and potentially mess up £200 worth of doors?

Also, has anyone ever had any fitting issues where the door wouldn't fit the car straight off?

Thanks.
