I used the top two kits on my car. Make sure you make the windows operate as smooth as possible so the motor is not over taxed.

On the door locks, don't operate them until you have made all the correct length adjustments unless the linkages are disconnected. The solenoid is powerful enough to pop the head off the eyelet if the door lock linkage wont let it go all the way down. So, start adjustments from the locked/down position to prevent damage to the eyelet

Well incase it is not a fad over there yet. We have a scurge of criminals useing something that jams the signal on the remote locks, which makes people leave their cars unlocked... with the logical consequences...

I will post pics of the doors. I plan on selling the fiberglass panels to other customizers.
I will post pics of the entire build. I have already posted a few.


I know this is pulling from way back when... Did you ever end up producing these?
