Could we see a picture of the door and how it fits and works with the existing door?
Seriously though, I do not have photos for these files.My YouTube RC videos:

Thanks Pat. I assume they are spring loaded based n what Alpha said awhile back or servo? I see the horn on the edge of the door and the square plate is the hinge point. Another thing that would be cool and clean up the wing bottom is larger servo covers for the four wing servos that cover up everything but a slot for the servo horn. You could start with what's there and the part over the servo horn. I may end up doing that out of 1/16" ply if nobody comes up with one. A stealth plane with big gaping holes in the bottom of the wing is just wrong.

Hi does anyone have a updated picture or placement of these decals that came with the F-22? I got my F22 from the first batch of preorders and I didn’t see any pictures of where the larger dark gray rectangles go. I found a post of position of smaller and large squares go but not the large rectangles. Thanks

OK, printing done. Here's a quick mock-up. I'm hoping to be able to cut away some of the stock gear door to help close up the wheel pocket some more.
Oh, and be VERY careful snapping the doors into the hinge plates. I broke a tab on BOTH doors trying to get them in. I may reprint the doors in ABS instead.2 PhotosPat

Thanks for posting that Pat. Looks like you have room, based on your pics, to cut down the stock gear door. That may have been the intent? Would have been nice to have the door horn to the inside so the servo connector could have been hidden like so many other MRC models. Are you going to cut in the hinge part and door so they are flush to the wing? Just wondering.Pat

Here's what I ended up with on the extra decals based on the information I posted earlier. I think it looks pretty close to scale now, better than what I did on the first one. I used the big rectangles behind the cheaters, but cut off about 1/4" from the length. I cut down two of the four smaller squares to match the full scale, and then I cut up the parallelograms for the wing and nose.5 PhotosPat
