Clubman/Clubvan Barn Doors, how far can you get them open ?

So im thinking about starting a little project with a Clubvan, but ideally the barn doors would need to open 180 degrees rather than 90. Anyone know if its possible ? either stock or by removing the checkstrap/doorbrake ?

the hinges are limited to 90 degrees even if you remove the shocks. also, if you were to open 180, i think the door will hit the quarter panel.
