Thanks for the comments guys, yes intrusion beams are mandatory, as are ADR compliant door catches.
More Door Work
I manufactured some exterior door handle fixing assemblies and fitted those to the doors. These handles can be easily removed from the door by undoing the shoulder bolt fitted. I also incorporated an internal return stop on the mechanism so that the handle stop can be adjusted to be perfectly flush to the exterior of the door.
A small interior handle and recess in the top of the door to pull it closed were also added. This was first a separate molded part that was then glassed in. In this way the bottom radii of the recess could be made perfectly.
The interior door release handle is connected by a cable to the Porsche door lock assembly. Pulling this handle operates the lock mechanism separately to the outside handle.
I then looked at door boxes. I really did not like any of the door boxes available so I made my own molds quickly out of MDF as per below.
Fibre glass was applied to each of of the molds and removed leaving a perfectly surfaced thin and light box. So that I could get a perfect match to the doors they were glassed in as shown below.
Then the boxes were then carefully cut out of the door to make a flange that matched the contour of the doors perfectly. The result is shown below. Fasteners are on the inside and the box has a perfectly spaced small gap all around. I like creating these gap lines in preparation for the body work!
When they are painted black the gap will not be as visible.
A quick four point fastening system was also used so that the boxes did not have visible bolts around the perimeter. Black caps will be fitted over the holes.
I also did some work on the door area shown in yellow primer.
Now onto the dashboard!
