Default Hummer h3 door removal?

I saw a couple of h3s doorless and it looked sick. I was wondering how can I remove my doors? Have you guys removed it before?

I can't do that, wayyyyyy to cold.. going below zero again tonight and tomorrow.. brrrr..
seriously, google it,it don't look right to me, besides that, you lose support in an accident. There are some that use tube doors, to make up for that. The doors are bolted on, however you have a wiring harness that runs into the door, and you will need to disconnect that. GL

I figured it out. It's actually quite easy you disconnect the wires and unbolt the doors and yes it quite chilly here in georgia too but I can't wait till it gets warmer so I can finally take it out for a spin

it may not look HEAVY but it IS VERY HEAVY! the harness unplugs easily, when its warm and will probably be broken in the cold..
the 2 small bolts unhook the tabs that keep it from lifting up. remove them and the closer rod and with 2 guys to help, lift it off.


going back on is 10 times harder getting the pins lined up , both at once while lifting is something I will not try again alone.


for a little fun it may not be worth it. you can do and learn.




oh, rehooking the closer is an experience the difficulty you wont see till you try it the first time. very tricky.


NOT EZ.

Thanks for the heads up... I really want to experience driving without doors so it's worth it to me
