    The one thing you want to make sure you DON"T do is to remove the factory door guard/bar that is attached to the door skin and runs the length of the door. Tech is REALLY getting picky about them being there. That was what started all the hoohaa at the Dual National at Nelson with the Miata drivers.

    As well they should. It's VERY clear in the rules that it be left, so it's a big no no to remove it, and rather silly too.

    Another door-gutting related question.

    If I've got power locks and windows, the wiring harnesses for these features need to remain in the door even if the actual motors have been removed, correct?

    Unless the factory equipped the door for those items only as an option, otherwise, yes.
