VDCCRY30011 is the Vertical Doors, Inc. vehicle-specific Vertical Door Conversion Kit for the 2011-2023 Chrysler 300 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 2011-2023 Chrysler 300 a Cleaner, More Dramatic Opening Motion
The second modern 300 kept the long sedan proportions but added a more sculpted body, cleaner lighting, and a more refined cabin profile.
Vertical front doors add a show feature that works with luxury-oriented 300C builds, sportier 300S cars, and carefully planned custom sedans.
The vehicle-specific VDCCRY30011 system is listed for the 2011-2023 Chrysler 300 application described on this page. It uses the original doors and a vehicle-specific hinge system instead of a universal weld-on conversion.
Keep the 300's full-size character and change the moment it arrives.

Contact Vertical Doors, Inc. first if the vehicle has aftermarket fenders, widebody components, custom bodywork, previous collision repair, a body conversion, replacement hinges, or another modification near the hinge and fender area.

How the Vertical Door Conversion Works
After installation, open the converted 300 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.
Before You Order
- Verify that the vehicle matches the 2011-2023 Chrysler 300 listing and body style described above.

- Tell VDI about aftermarket fenders, widebody components, custom bodywork, previous collision repair, replacement hinges, or modifications near the hinge area.

- Call Vertical Doors, Inc. at 951-245-8669 when fitment is uncertain.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is VDCCRY30011 a universal Lambo door kit?
No. VDCCRY30011 is a vehicle-specific Vertical Doors, Inc. application for the listed 2011-2023 Chrysler 300. It is not a universal weld-on hinge system.
Does VDCCRY30011 fit every Chrysler 300 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 LD platform, evolved from the LX architecture. 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 VDCCRY30011 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.

“Just an awesome experience today at Vertical Doors! This company takes care of their customers! Thank you for making our son's day. You all rock!”
“Vertical Doors Inc is the original name in the game when it comes to Lambo Doors. I had the pleasure of buying their kit for my 2014 C7. I highly recommend getting the install done by them as the process is quite extensive! They had me in and out in one day. No door gaps to speak of and the hinges feel smooth and strong. Don't try doing the kit at home, let the pros do it for you. They also gave me a deal on some beautiful true carbon fiber skirts made in house! Shout out to their sibling company California SuperCoupes.”
“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
