// About this kit

Part number
VDCMAZRX80408
Fits
Mazda RX82003–2012
Made by
Vertical Doors, Inc., USA
In the kit
Left and right hinge assemblies, gas shocks, mounting hardware, instructions

The Mazda RX8 front doors swing out like any other car. This kit changes that. Part number VDCMAZRX80408 converts the factory doors so they open forward and up in a vertical arc, and it fits every trim of the RX8 from 2003 through 2012. The hinges bolt to the factory bolt pattern, so there is no cutting or welding, and the whole conversion can be removed later to return the car to stock.

  • 2 Vertical Doors, Inc. lambo door hinges, one for each side
  • 2 gas shocks to carry the doors through their travel
  • All mounting hardware needed for the conversion

Vertical Doors, Inc. builds these kits in the USA from domestic hardened steel, and the hinge design is patented. Each kit is engineered around the specific vehicle rather than adapted from a universal part, which keeps the geometry right for the RX8 door and fender line. A step-by-step instruction manual comes in the box; we recommend having a professional installer do the work using those instructions, and tech support is available if questions come up during the job.

Shown: a typical VDI kit. Your kit is made for your car, so its exact plate, arm, brackets and shock differ from this drawing.

The door first swings out on the vertical pin, then lifts on the round bearing hub, and the gas shock holds it up: the two-stage motion in VDI's patent (US 6,845,547). Each kit has right and left hinge assemblies, two gas shocks, M8 bolts with washers, shoulder bolts and pins (VDI install manuals); set screw #2 and nut #1 adjust where the door closes. A typical kit, drawn from VDI's Crossfire manual: the plate, arm, brackets, shock and angles differ by vehicle, and each kit is made for its car.
