I have received a high amount of email requesting Door Lift Kits information, here is a collection of information that I could find to help you guys with your Honda's (and other style of cars) make your doors lift up like a Lamborghini.

PLEASE NOTE - I am NOT a manufacture, and I do NOT sell these parts.

The information on this page was collected by others that were willing to share this technique. If you want to share more information, photos or instructions then write me and I will post it. The instructions and information was sent into me, I don't know anything about how to install doors onto your car.

This is a photo of a Honda CXC that I found... so it can be done.

About this time last year I remember logging on to Lambolounge about three times a day to look at the "door hinge" links. I was installing a vertical door system on my Saleen cobra convertable.

I purchased my hinge kit from Adam at MonsterGraphix who has pictures just above mine, it is now done and I even installed an Air ride suspension. Check out some pics of my Saleen speedster with Decah hinges since your site was my insiration and reference guide.

To install the door hinges, you simply have to have these parts:

• Two air shocks - that work by switch (about 8 inches long each)
• A welder
• Steel tubing (for door reinforcement)
• Thick steel sheet metal

You have to mount one shock onto a plate at the bottom front corner of the drivers door, mounted onto a flat plate that is welded to the floor/door structure of the car, under the carpet. The shock is not seen when the door is closed, the shock goes inside of the door and there is a plate welded to the door that also mounts to the shock at the tip of the skinniest shaft.

You have to reinforce the door for support. They take off the fenders do some cutting in below A post weld on about 2X3 square tube, then GMC or Ford E rear cargo doors hinge. Cut some off and add to it like 180* flat bar (now on that Honda they used 175psi struts).

When you hit the switch the door should slide out on that shock, now comes the pushing up part. You have to have the other shock mounted to the same plate, but it is about 12 inches long and runs up parallel to the door beside the seat and mounts to the door at the end of the shock. You have to have a shaft made to the door so that when the door pops out the shock slides on the shaft then when the door is popped out it catches and pushes the door open.
