Westermann Half Doors

[biomax]

Anyone have these on their seven?  Caterham is out of stock on half doors and am contemplating the Westermann ones.  

 

They are one of the few aftermarket companies who make a SV version.  Curious if their quality & fitment is acceptable.

 

Thx

I believe soft bits does half doors. Haven’t seen or used them so can’t weigh in on quality or figment. People have been happy with their other products.

Edit:  @biomax, email them and order whatever set up you want. They tend to make them on demand since COVID, that’s how I got ours. 
 

The softbits door doesn’t have the formed pocket for your arm, however on a SV chassis there is sufficient room in the cabin plus the slight give in the fabric and if you leave (or choose to not in stall a snap at the rear)they allow you to have your arm resting comfortably on the sill. 
 

I have the mohair version so more give than say vinyl. They drop down to the ground for entry, so that’s of note. They do help with the chill factor and with a half hood provide a less turbulent environment for sustained 65-70 mph cruise… ear plugs still required. 
 

If wet weather is a factor, vinyl would be my choice.

Not used them so can’t comment on fit / finish / quality
