good to see another one join the club, Im curious as to what kit you used as well; mine was from VPA, and after re-locating the actuators (the original spot caused some problems) Ive loved having them everyday....really sets your f-bod apart from others around town

yep, people always ask questions, and it's even more fun to stand back and talk about the car and then press the button to pop it open, people dig it
as for the bad spot, well I still dont know what was up and how it happened, but I cant really explain where they were either, but how they were connected to the latch mechanism - somehow goofed it up and for a period of time the doors were stuck shut (I could press the button, and even after getting the doorpanels off I could pull on the latch mechanism and the door still wouldnt open) as if the door was locked.....but there are no more locks, I just tugged here and there for awhile and the door magically released!....I have since relocated them to a less 'direct pull' spot so maybe they wont pull to hard and have it happen again (I have 45lb solenoids and I think they are too strong)
