5dr question.....

[[han]]

ok... when u open the front doors on a five door, there is an indentation i think it's two bumps, if u sit on the drivers seat and look to your right it will be about eyelevel... what the he11 are they? it's been puzzling me since i got the car.

hope some genius/clever clogs boffin can help....

not too why, they are there on a 3 door too. think it might be something to do with structural integrity rather than something to do with the door itself.

its a j reg so is it not side impact protection?

a what what sellers!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

SIP would have to consist of bars going across the inside of the door though mate.

I think the dents are to provide a minimalistic spring like action if the car was to ever end up on its roof. (believe me its possible  :embarassed:) basically its a half figure of 8 chopped down the middle on the B pillar, as i said as far as i am aware it provides a structural "strong point" on the safety cage around the driver.
