Best Tube Doors?
Spring is here and I am looking to lose the doors. I've seen pics of some great tube doors on the forum before. Anyone have any sugggestions including prices? Aftermarket side mirrors?
Anyone wish they had not ordered tube doors? Just think that they look cool and serve as some protection on the road. Thanks.

I have the Rancho tube doors. I use the Mopar mirror and bracket that mounts to the windshield for a mirror when I go doorless or use the tube doors.
I think they look cool, but I don't think I would purchase tube doors if I had to do it over again. I feel like I'm getting into the tea cups at disney world with them. I'd rather just ride without doors entirely or have used the ~$300 toward a set of factory half doors (fingers crossed).
On the plus side, they did save my carbon fiber downhill bike helmet from rolling out of the passenger floor board and on to the asphalt once when I took a corner too fast. That incident alone saved me the cost of the tube doors.

Just got my Warrior tube doors delivered. Haven't drove with them on yet but, they are quality and fit great. Got them delivered to my door for $250. I prefer riding with the doors off but, the wife likes the more secure feeling that these provide.

Appreciate the replies. I did check out the doors and for $300 not too bad. Does anyone know if Rubiman is selling his doors? I sent him a pm but haven't heard anything.

Dont forget that ours easily adjust so no rattle, also they are functional on the trail offering great visibilty through the front portion of the door.
