I beg to differ from you,But the CORRECT answer is YES,you can remove the doors,(and reinstall)WITHOUT removing the Torsion bars,it IS far more dangerous for somebody who has never removed a torsion bar,to try to remove a torsion bar,just to remove the door,I have done it this way since 1982,and NEVER had any problems,THE main thing is to remove the strut and THE FOUR BOLTS ONLY(the horz.bolts) that go THRU THE HINDGES(the swivel part of the hindges) and Directly into the door DO NOT UNDER ANY CONDITION REMOVE ANY BOLTS THAT ATTACH THE HINDGES TO THE BLACK BODY OR THE(2) BOLTS THAT hold the torque on the torsion bar,You must also remove the T panel to disconnect the wiring harness from the door,If anybody doubts this I can post a picture in the files section of one of my Deloreans WITH the doors removed,and the struts still in place under torque.Also the door MUST BE IN THE FULL OPEN POSITION(SUPPORTED)to be able to remove the door.
