		Temporarily attach the door to the vehicle with the new hinge and, with the help of your friends, lift the door up and down making sure that everthing aligns properly and that nothing is in the way.
		Previously, your door latch probably consisted of a stiker pin mounted to the vehicle and a latch in the door with a horizontal opening to accept this striker pin.
		Also, since the door will be swinging down onto the striker pin, you will probably have to modify the end of the door to allow the stiker pin to pass through.

	Butterfly doors - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Butterfly doors, also called vertical doors or dihedral doors, are a type of door often seen on high-performance automobiles.
		They are similar to scissor doors, but while scissor doors merely tilt forward and up, butterfly doors also rotate as they move forward.
		The McLaren F1, the Saleen S7, and the Mercedes-Benz SLR use butterfly doors.

	Gullwing Doors
		Conventional car doors are typically hinged at the front-facing edge of the door and allow the door to swing outward from the body of the car.
		The 300 SL used the door design to allow an unusual chassis design which required a very high door sill and forced the doors to be smaller than would otherwise have been optimal.
		The doors are hinged at the front similar the scissor doors but the hinges are placed higher up on the A-pillar, allowing the door to pivot both up and out.

		Because Lamborghini knew that their door would be opening this way, they have the A-pillar out of the way, and the door comes straight down, just like the blade on your scissors.
		Butterfly wings are close to scissor doors in that there pivot points are very close, and the doors end up in the same area.
		The VLS most close resembles a scissor door configuration, because the pivot gets the door up and out of the passenger compartment, and puts it where the Lamborghini door is. The biggest difference is that it opens up slightly to allow for using the stock latching mechanism, and to clear the A-pillar.

	scissor doors?

		Gullwing doors are hinged in the roof and rotate up with the axis of rotation parallel to the long axis of the car.
		Scissors doors are hinged on the pillar and rotate up-and-forward.
		The weird motions gullwing and scissors doors go through are to keep the door from having to swing waaaaaaay out.

	KLEEMANN Scissor Doors - GermanCarFans.com
		KLEEMANN is proud to present a new and highly improved version of the scissor door system, now available with a fully automatic hydraulic opening and closing system.
		In the late 1970's Lamborghini introduced the Countach with its forward pivoting doors, which were required because one couldn't close a standard hinged door once inside the vehicle.
		KLEEMANN paid great attention to the aesthetics of the opening process itself, to simply swing the door forward on a single plane is too cold and simple.

	Hamann Wry: Lamborghini Tuner Gets "Other" Lambo Doors - Jalopnik
		Scissor doors go straight up, and require no room at all to open.
		Gullwings require less room than a normal door because the hinge is at the center of the roof, not at the top of the door.
		Butterfly doors do use more room to open(actually about the same as a normal door, but you can't really get out of them unless they are fully open, unlike normal doors), which is why you don't see them on many cars.

	VWvortex Forums: what are the doors on the mclaren door called?
		The same description is used for the doors on the Toyota Sera and Ferrari Enzo which have a similar hinge setup and door shape.
		It allows for a large door opening which is often required for cars with very low roof lines, while preventing that long door from having a very large sweeping arc as it opens outward like a normal door.
		In the case of the McLaren, they went with the dihedral design to allow for the doors to be opened enough to allow occupants to escape in the event of a roll over.

	Lambo style doors suicide doors and gullwing door conversions.
		Lambo doors are not practical on the rear doors of a 4 door car as the rear doors will swing up and over obscuring the front door.
		Suicide doors are relatively straightforward to live with but you will find yourself reaching for the wrong side of the door when using other peoples cars which can look a little strange.
		The hinge of these doors is at the top of the door and the door swings out and upward must like the wings of a bird in flight.
