I know in mine (older style) we cut just the bottom part of the hinge, leaving just a pin going through the top part of the hinge, the pin drops in just like on a wrangler, we had to bore the hole out a bit on the part on the jeep to get them to slide in easier but it was about a 2 hour job and now both doors lift straight off, and they still seal up.

Yup, I dont take my doors off anymore though just cause its a pain keeping them in my garage and moving them around, etc. I may actually consider it this week though, yesterday temps got up to 107 today is 106 here in North GA. Not fun with no AC

They have mirrors at oreilly's auto parts for 15 bucks a peace worth it cause you don't have to do any cuting they are on around 8 in piece to help stick them out what we did is screwed them down and bent the 8 in piece up. Requires no cuting, mods are anything once you bend it once it's easy to take it off and on to require doors on are off, only bad thing is you have to fix and readjust it every time but it's worth it to ride doorless

I folded my 2nd row down and stacked em on top of each other with a towel inbetween so they wouldnt scratch. Idk if they will go in just the seat.
