while i dont think its a safety issue
i think johhn law mmight have something to say
search on here it has been covered b/4 not to long ago
cops probably couldn't bother you... well, you do need to have mirrors, though.
there's a removeable panel near your left foot... behind that should be a couple connectors for the power stuff and speaker. should be a quick thing to plug in and unplug.
removing the door is another problem... well, actually all you need to do is remove the torx bolts (T-40, I think) holding the hinges onto the body. then the door will drop onto your foot (it's heavier than you'd think). getting them back on will be the hard part, since you need to hold it up and maneuver it into position to put the bolts back in.
people who want to take off their XJ doors more than once a year modify the hinges so they can pull the doors off without having to remove the hinges. the methods for that vary depending on which style hinges you have, they changed the style in 96, some 96 models have the old style, some 96 models have the newer style. if you have the newer style, this is the best way to do the mod. http://www.projectxj.com/mods/doorless.htm
Thanks for the site. I am making two summer doors for my XJ and that hinge sounds easer then what I was going to make.
no problem... just take lots of pics when you do it! hehe make it easier on me when I do it (whenever that'll be)

in about an hour when I get my sawzall and come over.
*ahem* grabs both bb guns
thanks for the info
i will be doing this soon cause it is already really hot in the xj and its not even summer
if you don't like the heat... put up the windows and turn on the A/C that's what I did today, well after I picked up a box of ice cream sandwiches from Acme. yum yum yum
