You do need to cut the door, about an inch.  I did it
to mine and just wrapped the excess carpet under the
door.  Seeing as you have to weld the swivel seat base
in, I figured I wasn't going to miss the extra inch
any time soon.  The more annoying pain IMO is that the
battery bracket bolt is really hard to get at after
you've put the swivel base in - at least it is on my
90 GL, where the bolt protrudes up from the
compartment floor just in front of the battery well.
I think there must be a different sort of battery hold
down when you have the swivel base, but haven't
investigated it yet.
