Just drive in reverse, open your door and jump out.... SuIcIdE no clue but I think a 4door neon with the front 2 doors suicide and the back 2 regular would look cool with all 4 open make a kind of X look.

It can be done but it's going to be tuff,I've seen it done but there was a decent amount of fabrication done to it. (i.e. unibodys are the easiest cars to do that to )

Thank you...

I found a kit... although it looks really cheap so I'm just gonna do it myself...
I plan on shaving the handles and having the doors open remotely. I post pics when it done

Its a pretty easy setup.. i think they bolt right on to where your old hinges were. i would do it myself if i were u and save the money from someone else doing it. Also with ur door handles installin the poppers and stuff is pretty easy. I would do that myself to and save a couple 100 dollars.

I'm in process of getting suicide doors fitted to the rear and lambo style put on the front. There is quite a bit of fabrication involved, lots of cutting, welding and strengthening. Will post pics up of the process once I'm finished.

I'm using the autoloc kit - http://www.autoloc.com/detail.lasso?itemid=HDHINS - with door poppers and hopefully actuators for remote opening and closing. Not sure if this will be possible as there is very littel room. Only enough for one of the hinges (supposed to be using two hinges for each side).

Will be worth all the pain and headaches in the end though.
