Several people have asked about using standard "round corner" CJ doors with Alaskan Postal and World Cab hardtops which require very hard to find "square corner" doors.
Here's a few photos of the corner fillers I've fabricated so I can use my stock round corner doors with my Postal top.
There's still a little finish work to do, but they provide a good seal and don't look too bad. They're also just in rough paint right now, I'll have them finished the same as the rest of the Jeep before I call them done.
They are made of a 1/2" piece of angle iron bent to follow the countour of the round top of the door, and 20-ga. sheet metal with two 90 degree-bent lips to match the "square" angle of the hardtop opening. These are welded together.
I'm looking forward to finally being able to take this thing through a car wash :-)
