I have talked to an engineer about my doors, and he said as long as I comply to adr's on anti intrusion, door handles and hinges all is OK. eg no anti intrusion on GQ's, I use GQ handles and hinges, all cool.

That is the stock set up on a Jeep wrangler and has been all through the CJ days where they ticked the option for doors most had none :armsup:

As Cheesy said as long as you match the adr side intrustion for the model used should be fine

I spoke to my engineer this week and he stated that there must be a handle both inside and out. These, as well as the hinges (and any applicable anti-intrusion) are ADR approved and it is easier to reuse the original ones. Also the window (if there is one) must be removable/retractable.

That is in Queensland.

I also asked him about running no doors at all and he said that there is a strong argument to suggest that this would be possible but "you'd have to argue you way around that one" :roll:
