    That was just the kit! I swear by this. No bodywork (shaving). I have seen the light. Im happy since I just recently started stripping the car. Gonna be my first real body mod on this car. Thanks guys!!!!!

    I always recommend rocky hinge.
    You can get the shaved door kit for $105
    Shaved door kit with solenoids for $179.95
    Or if I was you get the kit with Power bear claw latches for $205.95 on sale right now.

    I will say this. if you get a kit with seperate relays install them in the car(cabin) NOT in the door. i did that once and had alot of trouble with relays corroding and failing. If i had it to do again i would buy the ones with the built in relays.

    I had bear claw latchs put in, don't remember what brand solenoids I bought but they are the same as some cars use for power door locks. My ****ons are in plan site so I use a ignition type switch in the lic. plate recess to shut off power, locking the drs. Mines a 4dr so I have a cable in the trunk for the back dr. if the battry goes out.

    they all work in the beginning. the relays that the kits come with are "univeral accesory" relays that every auto part store sells for under $15. the cable is usually to light but home depot sells what you need and the rollers that allow 90 degree mounting of solinoid never have good mounting spot so i use copper tubing bent at 90 degrees to guide cable making sure it's filled with white grease. taking apart custom door panels is a drag but seems to always cause some damage to them.
