I'll let you know in a couple weeks. I have the Vertical Doors kit and it'll be going on soon.

Just know that these kits (all of them) are advertised at easy bolt on kits and from what I have seen THEY ARE NOT!

I used the Vertical Doors Kit. Put it on with one of my friends. It took about 4 nights, goes on fairly simply, its a pain to get all the gaps and door to line up with fender, but overall i would say it wasnt all that tough to put on. This kit was completely bolt-on, it was very nice in my opinion, only thing i dont like is u have to guide the door all the way shut or the shock will keep pushing it up.

Nope, you still have to do that. Or you can cut it out as well.

I am assuming that you are still able to open the doors the way you would on a car that is stock along with having them open up up? Is this right?? Sory for the ignorance, I have yet to see them in person but I am interested.

Yes but not quite as far out. They open about 60 degrees or so and then they can go up.
