sliding doors

[2dsei]

i am going to try to install sliders from a mini vans rear door on my 2door accord for driver and pass door i have it pretty much figured out just have to do it going to try to doo next week on my vacation should be nice if i works out

[b8er]

bahahaha

[SteveDX89]

That would be kinda cool if you pull it off. Good luck.

[Cheeseburger]

lol good luck with that

[frankie89]

that is the most original idea i have heard in a while...

[2drSE-i]

yea......problem is their gonna have to come out before they slide back. it wud be bad-ASS if u pull it off tho

[gfrg88]

lol that would be awsome if you pull it off

[Acid X]

Hopefully it doesnt damage the body or anything

[1320boy]

I think it would be one of the most coolist things that any one would see.
I hope you post something.

[T-Funk]

the u could hook up a motor that opens and closes the sliding doors automatically

[3G Jester]

that would be cool if you pulled it off. i would rock it.

[mkymonkey]

wow, will there even be enough room for the sliders on the accord?

[3G Jester]

you gotta tell us bro. whats the donor? i assume your taken the rear quarter pannels off to figure out support for the sliders to support the rolling doors. how is going to lock? same way? post up some pics of your diagrams or sketches or whatever. cant tell us all this stuff and then tell us you havent even seriously planned it

[HondaBoy]

the only bitch i'm seeing in doing sliding doors is having wires running into them. like how are you going to run speakers and the electronics on the doors? i'd say go with the gull wing doors. that'd be tight.

[getready]

i dont even understand how you'd do this... or maybe i'm just not seeing things the way you guys are. Has somebody done this before? I'm sort of lost..

[HondaBoy]

something like this i'm guessing. but with front doors. i think the gull wing idea is a good one though. not many people do that though because of a crap load of frame work to do.

[1320boy]

I actually know how to do the Gullwing fab when i was tinkering around and designing my CR-Xtream. But i have the idea in my head and actualy scetched it out.
Im thinking he could use the molding as part of the railing along with some braces and a track for the bottom. Im not good on how to explain unless i have something to physicly show.
But i have the idea.

[2drSE-i]

well for electronics he'd either have to run the wires all the way to go behind the door, or make the sliders open towards the front fender

[b8er]

where is the guy i would like to see if hes come up with anything or if hes got any pictures or scetckes, i agree with whast been posted above, it does look like a sweet idea but its gonna be hella hard, good luck

[A18A]

i think the hardest part would be makeing it come out, electronics wont be much of a deal, just have the wires comming out were the door latches onto... if that made sence, post some pictures, maybe make a how-to for it

[getready]

cant you just use stock accord doors instead of taking doors from another car? Cant you just take the rollers and other stuff from like a minivan or something? and then just fab it to his door? Seems easier than customizing another door to fit and such. Again, maybe i just dont fully understand it

[HondaBoy]

i think that was the idea. i thought anyway. to use sliders from mini van doors and fab it up to mount to the accords doors.

[jigga89SEi]

I'm a little upset... I've had this idea for a long time... And have acctually done a little bit of work towards it... I haven't said anything about it cause it's something completely new... N I wanted to be the first with it...

A friend of mine is helping me fabricate and what-not... The wiring is really easy... We're running into trouble with how to put the motor in... I want them to be automatic.. like minivans... Just push a button...

Good luck in your planning... If I ever pull it off... I'll definatly show yall.. But till then my plans, sketches and actual pictures are top secret...

Haha. I hope you were kidding.

Well shit, if you want sliding doors. Might as well get the tuck-away seats that fold down & lay flat & you can remove. Might as well make it a up-to- date mini-van/ Accord. More power to you, good luck with that. Seems like the 4 door model would have room for the door sliding back & purpose , kind of weird to see this happen.
