// About this kit

Part number: VDCCADXLR0409
Fits: Cadillac XLR2004–2009
Made by: Vertical Doors, Inc., USA
In the kit: Left and right hinge assemblies, gas shocks, mounting hardware, instructions

This is a bolt-on hinge conversion kit from Vertical Doors, Inc. that replaces the factory hinges on the Cadillac XLR so the doors swing up vertically instead of out. The kit, part number VDCCADXLR0409, mounts straight to the factory bolt pattern, and the conversion is completely reversible, so the car can go back to its stock doors at any point.

Each kit includes:

Two Vertical Doors, Inc. lambo door hinges, one for each side
Two gas shocks
All the mounting hardware needed for the install

Fitment covers all trim levels of the 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009 XLR. The hinges are made in the USA from domestic hardened steel, and the design is patented here as well. An instruction manual comes in the box, and free tech support is available while the job is underway. We recommend having the kit put in by a professional installer working from the supplied instructions, since door alignment on a conversion like this rewards experience.

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.
