A complete Vertical Door Kit and eligible mobile-installation package for the 2020-2026 Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray. This product combines Vertical Doors, Inc. kit VDCCHEVYCORC820 with professional installation at an approved home or business location.
The vehicle-specific system retains the original Corvette doors and creates the signature outward-then-up vertical door movement. Mobile-service eligibility and scheduling depend on the installation ZIP code, vehicle configuration, installer routing, and an appropriate work location.

Current Scheduling Expectations
VDI currently estimates approximately 1-2 weeks for many Southern California installations and approximately 6-8 weeks for other eligible areas. These estimates can change based on installer location, routing, demand, vehicle condition, and scheduling. Do not make non-refundable travel or event plans until the appointment is confirmed.

Confirmed Corvette C8 Stingray Fitment
VDCCHEVYCORC820 is designed for most factory-body 2020-2026 Corvette C8 Stingray models, including common 1LT, 2LT, 3LT, and Z51-equipped configurations.

What to Expect During Installation
The installer removes the required body panels, supports and marks the factory door position, replaces the original hinges with the VDI assemblies, manages wiring clearance, performs required non-visible clearance work, installs and adjusts the gas shocks, aligns the doors, and tests opening and closing.
Bolt-on does not mean modification-free. The system mounts at the factory hinge locations, but installation can require trimming a non-visible portion of the fender or inner-fender area to provide hinge-arm clearance. Prior collision damage, aftermarket body panels, an existing hinge conversion, or other modifications can change the installation scope.
Mobile Installation Requirements
The vehicle and installation area must be accessible and appropriate for the work. VDI will confirm requirements during scheduling. Disclose gated access, parking restrictions, limited workspace, steep surfaces, prior repairs, and aftermarket body modifications before the appointment.
If mobile installation is not available, review installation at VDI in Lake Elsinore or find a qualified local installer.
Choose the Correct C8 Door System
This package uses the traditional VDI Vertical Door movement: outward first, then vertically upward. A C8 ZLR Door Conversion opens in a single diagonal outward motion. Use the C8 models and upgrades guide to compare the two systems.
