I used a bolt in the door mount as a door stop but it didn't allow the door to open far enough. I mentioned it to my son and he said he would come up with something. Did not expect this ------

The first picture shows the mechanism with the door closed. The second picture shows the door full open. The third picture shows the mechanism with the door full open

I suggested to him that I expected there would be interest. I don't know if he can produce them at a price that will be of interest. I'll ask him and post a reply.

The color I used is Ruby Red (slightly modified)
used by Ford and others I think.

The doorstop mechanism is installed by simply removing the hard top (if you are using one) and removing the waterfall. It requires drilling and tapping approx. 4 holes (ea. side). I was laid up the day he installed them so I didn't get a chance to watch.

Once number one son arrives at a selling price and there is still interest I'll post some installation photos.

Very cool, I wish I could fabricate like that. Nice work. I am not interested as mine is finished and I am not taking those damn doors apart again.

Want to apologize to all who had an interest in the door stop mechanism. I had a fall last year and was laid for a while. I just made a short video on my cell phone in case anyone is interested in seeing it in operation. Just text me at 5037505501 with your iPhone number and I will send it to you in a message.
