That will allow you to undo the wire harness thing. Then you will have to undo the strap thing from the hook thing. Then all you need to do is remove the bolt things from the hing things and the door things should come off.

make sure to roll down the window thing before you unplug the plug thing. it will give you a place to stick the thing on top of your shoulders through so you can lift up. oh and i recommend some lithium grease on the bolts for the hinge things before you put the doors back on. otherwise they get hard to take off after a while.

push the red tab (lock) right to left, or left to right. Then squeeze the bottom front to back and pull down.

I had trouble with this yesterday. The stinking red thing wouldn't budge!! I've done it before on the hard top's wire harness but this has been a pain!!

Wink Mirrors

I bought and use the outlaw mirror things instead of moving my stock mirror things.

I keep the outlaw things under the seat things.

If your having issues with the little red tab,, just remember if its a PIA your doing it wrong. Calm down and try another door.. see if it works better there.. if not,, a hammer and cutting pliers should also do the trick..
