im thinking the one piece door and ive seen one that has been side hinged which would probaly be better for me as iuse old hinges and just have to mount the lock

im affraid i dissagree.
every single piece door ive seen are very poor in quality, rattle about and never fit nice.
i think the originals look best. but you have to de lock / de handle them for the smooth look

have to agree with our mate ,every one that ive seen too has been crap rattle dont fit, fall off cos hinge mounting pointis not designed to have stress , and the worst thing is the fumes comming in thro cos its not sealed properly! trust me I know
i had a one pice door on my van and it looked g8t. but its rattling was bad and the higes keeped undoing also it let fumes in a lot. I went on with it for a year until i fell off on the motrway LOL I just keep going and put the old doors back on.
if i were you i just delock de handle the old doors coz one pice ones are a nightmer the fact is there just to big also not had to get in to. But hay its up to you its your van also got any pics

just sell the van paul and buy a nova.
but seriously, try and make a decent single door. if ur gonna do it, may as well do it propably.
as the saying goes, if ur gonna get wet..... may as well go swimming

Leave them as is, just delock and make sure the back lock is on the central locking mechanism.
1 piece doors look wank and Max Power IMO......

lol Paul its true about the poor seal. Pikey and us lot went to see a van ages ago, had a 1 piece rear door and leaked water like anything. Id imagine it would leak fumes in too.
I preferred haydens dehandled 2 doors
