VDCDAVE07 is the Vertical Doors, Inc. vehicle-specific Vertical Door Conversion Kit for the 2007-2010 Dodge Avenger 4-door sedan. The system retains the vehicle's original front doors and creates the traditional VDI movement: each converted door opens outward first, then raises vertically. This conversion is also commonly described as a Lambo door kit or scissor door kit.
Give the Second-Generation Dodge Avenger Sedan a More Aggressive Identity
The 2007-2010 Avenger uses a squared-off front end, high beltline, and four-door sedan body influenced by Dodge's larger models.
Vertical front doors add a clearer custom focus while the rear doors and original sedan body remain functional.
The vehicle-specific VDCDAVE07 system is listed for the 2007-2010 Dodge Avenger application described on this page. It uses the original doors and a vehicle-specific hinge system instead of a universal weld-on conversion.
Separate the JS-platform Avenger from an ordinary midsize sedan.

How the Vertical Door Conversion Works
After installation, open the converted Avenger front door outward until it reaches the hinge system's stopping point, then raise it vertically. The gas shock assists during the upward movement.
Proper installation and adjustment are essential for door alignment, latch operation, wiring clearance, surrounding panel clearance, and consistent opening and closing.
Installation Requirements
The VDI hinge system is designed around the vehicle's factory hinge area. Bolt-on describes the vehicle-specific mounting design; it does not mean the installation is modification-free. Installation commonly requires body-panel removal, non-visible trimming or clearance work, wiring management, and careful final alignment.
Before loosening or removing the original hinges, use 2-inch painter's tape to mark the door's factory alignment. Place tape across the door and adjacent body at several reference points, including near the hinges and firewall, then draw matching alignment lines across the tape. These marks help preserve the door's original horizontal and vertical position during installation.
- Support each door safely throughout the installation.
- Follow the supplied instructions for hinge stops, gas-shock installation, wiring, and panel clearance.
- Check the latch, weather sealing, wiring, and surrounding body panels before road use.
If you are not experienced with door alignment, drilling or tapping where applicable, body-panel removal, trimming, and wiring clearance, use a qualified automotive customization or body shop.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is VDCDAVE07 a universal Lambo door kit?
No. VDCDAVE07 is a vehicle-specific Vertical Doors, Inc. application for the listed 2007-2010 Dodge Avenger. It is not a universal weld-on hinge system.
Does VDCDAVE07 fit every Dodge Avenger trim and body style?
No blanket all-trim or all-body claim should be made from the model name alone. Match the exact model year, body style, and door configuration to the VDI listing and contact VDI when anything is uncertain.
What chassis or platform is associated with this vehicle range?
The vehicle history for this listing is associated with Chrysler JS platform. Platform information helps identify the vehicle but does not prove that another model on the same architecture uses this kit.
Does the conversion replace the factory doors?
No. The original front doors are retained. The VDI hinge assemblies and gas shocks change how the converted doors move.
How do the converted doors open?
The converted doors open outward first to the hinge system's stopping point and can then be raised vertically with assistance from the gas shocks.
Is trimming or adjustment required?
Yes. Installation commonly requires body-panel removal, non-visible trimming or clearance work, wiring management, hinge adjustment, and careful final door alignment.
Can I install VDCDAVE07 myself?
A mechanically experienced person with the proper tools, safe workspace, patience, and door-alignment experience may install the kit. Use a qualified installer if you are not comfortable with body-panel removal, trimming, wiring clearance, hinge adjustment, and final alignment.
Can the vehicle be returned to factory hinges?
The original doors and factory hinges can generally be reinstalled, but trimming, drilling, tapping, or other application-specific work may need repair if an exact factory restoration is required.
Can Vertical Doors, Inc. help after I buy the kit?
Yes. VDI provides fitment, installation, adjustment, operation, replacement-parts, and product support before, during, and after the purchase.

“Having Vertical Doors products is a must have to elevate your build to a whole different level. The amount of customer service and support they give back to their clients is amazing. Highly recommended.”
“I was having trouble with my C8 Door after a terrible attempt at install by another company (Eikon Motorsports). I called Vertical Doors and Danny was able to be a hugeeeee help. He got me in right away, told me exactly what the problem was, knowledgeable, extremely responsive, and communicated with me the whole way through. I cant say enough of the team there. I wish I would have come to them in the first place.”
Ordered my 2018 SS Camaro kit during the COVID crises. The team worked hard to get my kit to me during this critical time. I am so pleased with the new look. It took my Camaro to a new level. Great craftsmanship and best kit anywhere. - TJ from Florida
I have ordered and self installed a C7 Corvette Vertical door kit on my convertible. The kit is a top quality product and great tech help if needed. I am looking forward to doing a C8 install later this year. Just waiting on my Corvette to be made and delivered.
