Has anyone ever seen a door cut down while retaining the vent window? I'm planning on chopping up a set that I have but I'm looking for a little uniqueness. It'd be nice to still be able to force the wind in the cab since I don't have a/c. Not sure if it's worth it yet, but I would love to see a picture if anyone has done it this way before.

Basically something like this:

All of the ones I've ever seen removed the wing windows. You will still get a lot of wind in the cab without them.

At that rate i think id just take the doors off lol

I've seen quite a few different types, some cool, some, what was the point. lol I understand its all up to the individual but sometimes you can just go past the usefulness of it. I have thought about building some for my toy and adding flaps to reduces the amount of water/mud intrusion into the cab. Summer time in the NW may be dry but you will still hit a puddle in the shade. lol Its just easier to rollup the windows at that point.

It's nice to have some left at the bottom to keep stuff in the floor board from rolling out and keep some of the spray from the front tires out.

You couldn't pay me to lose my arm rests, or the bottom of the window opening.
