Yeah I've got to trash this idea.
you might want to add some curb feelers while you're at it.

I just came here for the comments. When I saw "door dog", this came to mind.

One reason I've always loved sports cars is that owners customize them. It makes them a kind of 'art form'. And that gigantic wing on the back? Well, in some situations, it really has a function.

Look on Amazon and the SED website (read the blogs) and you'll see LOTS of positive reviews for the door dog. These are owners who use it and like it. Did you read those comments and blogs before rendering your opinion? Or have you tried a door dog yourself? If not, then if you're just shooting insults and derision from the hip you may be doing yourself (and others) a disservice.

Stay classy my friends.

Just sayin'...
While you are correct, I believe you might be related to this product in some way, and if so, you are really steppin' in it telling people they should not have an opinion if they have not tried it. If you are not related to the product, what I said still stands.

I think it would have been far better marketing to follow the post with a comment, "Here is a link to what users are saying about this product". That might have shorted out some of the negatives you are reading.

Good luck with your endeavor.

Meh, not really my thing, but I am glad that the aftermarket is supporting our cars.

I actually think this would be useful for every new passenger that I have ever had in the car. Usually, I have to tell them how to open the door from both the outside and the inside.

But they are only sold in pairs it seems, and $40 for paint other than black seems a bit unreasonable.

Yet to see a pic of what it looks like with the door closed. Wondering if it looks like a Black Lab's tongue caught in the door. Hence the name of the product.

I'm not being intolerant, but I have an opinion and although it's negative, I still have one. I truly thought this was a joke, and if i ever see one I'm going to bust out laughing at the lawn chair owner.
