Default DIY Door change on an Si???

So a friend of mine works at a Pick A part L.A. I've been wanting to put power windows in my car, and a wrecked 93 Civic Coupe just came in. I got the doors with the tweeter toting black panels for $38 EACH . Spotless. I got hooked up. I have the stock wiring harness for it, too. I've heard in passing that changing doors is more than BITCH to do. I can't find a DIY, so I thought I'd ask. Trying to save some cheddar by putting the doors on myself before the trip to the paint shop.

Any help would be cool.

remove your fenders first.

then pop the bitch pin out of the door retaining hinge from the inside of the doors.

Open them all the way and set something up to hold the end of them from falling when you undo the bolts.

after that you just unhook the 4 bolts holding them on.

the reinstall and realign the doors (I use guess and check method for realigning)
