Body - Door Part
In this section I am going to add a lot of photos and try my best to explain, in "great detail" how to get the doors to fully operate with windows and latches to work. I also encourage ANYONE who wants to send me their photos and ideas of how to get the windows to work, so I can post a few different way of accomplishing this difficult task.

Doing the shaved door latches and cable solenoids

Here a shot of the D&R inner door shell
The steel frame is made with 1/2 inch square for the window bow and 3/4 square for the front track support for more stiffness up their. I used 1/4 by 2 inch welded to the hinge and tied into the main frame. Its very very strong, I broke my bench vice trying to tweak it abit.
Here's a great way to cut and clearance for your door gas strut. Use a rubber band on the ball ends to simulate the shock movement
