quick lambo door ? With the doors open does the interior lights stay on all the time or do they eventually turn off?

The good thing about the GT factory kit is they can be adjusted from 45 to 90 degrees

The lights will shut off after a while its not long but at a show with the doors, trunk, & hood open I have never had a drained battery. I think its 10-15 min max then it all shuts off.

I think they look cool and as long as they close right go for it. I was at a car show where a z06 had his lambo doors up with the windows up also. The sun magnified through the door glass and then the windshield and burnt a hole in his dash!! He was at my car and someone came running over to tell him his car was smoking!!

Do something that hasnt been played out so bad the original company doesnt even use them anymore. Try Gullwing doors!

Go for it if that's what you want. My only requirement would be Zero modifications to the car, what I mean no cutting or grinding on the body parts of any kind. Must work like the standard door open inside the fender not on the outside. Fully reversible with no signs of modifications.

Last but not least price, the more they cost does not make them better. I won't bore every reader with all the examples. It does amaze me on this forum of all the people who say the more you pay it has to be better and you go to used parts and guys owning $40K plus cars are always looking for used tires.
