Thumbs down Lambo door install

I bought the lambo door kit for my 2015 frs, I've watched the video on YouTube, most of it looks pretty easy, more or less. But the guy doing the videos doesn't say a damn word through them. There are a couple spots it gets questionable. One is when the electrical wiring needs to be moved or extended, and the other part he is grinding something. He doesn't show what he's grinding. Does anyone have any experience putting these on, or know someone that does put them on?doors,

Welcome to the forum.


Most of us here are not into those... Only seen a few pics in my 5+ years on this forum.

Also, You already have lambo doors. Like the Miura and Gallardo.

Now, I'm going to sound like a jerk a little, but the civic forum is going to have a lot more info on "lambo doors".

Good luck.

That sounds like the typical level of quality for these kits

My suggestion is to return the kit you bought for a refund, if you still can.

LOL Reminds me of that meme that shows a Civic(?) with Lambo doors and Lambos with regular doors in the background and says: Lambo doors are so played out that even Lambos don't have Lambo doors.

Which is too bad that Lambo doors have become so associated with ricers because they actually make sense since parking spots seem to be getting tighter and tighter...

Why not call the place you purchased them from, I'm sure they should have an idea of how to install them? or take it some where that could do it professionally.

If you do not have a grinder, a welder, or basic electrical skills do not do this yourself. You have to cut all the door wiring and extend it to clear the opening and closing of the mechanism and if done incorrectly or half ass you can cause an electrical shot which can cause all kinds of havoc with your car or even burn it down. Dont be that guy.
