Might want to pm Travis (travis118) I know he has this done, looks good when I saw it in person last weekend.

Theres quite a few other parts your going to have to go with. In the end it will run you over $100 for it all. Also shaving your handles by yourself, be careful, and Hope you know how to weld.

those are just the failsafe buttons......you need a door popper kit.....you need a min 35lb pull solonoid per door.....wiring, aswell as some sort of external button, In Canada you need an external pop button in order to pass a vehicle inspection. If you do not have a button on the outside of your car to get in....good luck with the police........as shaddr3 said.....its gonna cost you about $100 per door plus welding.....I shaved my door handles....but I have a welder.....if you even try bondo/fiberglass....I'll laugh.

nope i got my own welder, and i've seen some kits on e-bay for around 80 bucks, is that a decent price? also, i have heard of using electronic door locks with a keypad to shave handles, would that work too??

[shaddr3]

uhhh i guess it would... yah it would

electric door locks would unlock your door but it wont open it
dont be cheap on doin this, if you be cheap and the shit is faulty it looks like your breakin a window cause you cant get in

use that on each door and wire it to your alarm, or look around that site some more and they have a whole kit that has like an alarm pad and shit too, i couldnt find it tho

jetts, the electronic door lock thing works (well my buddy did it to his chevette) and he used ford electronic door locks, and instead of having it connected to the lock, it connected to the door handle mechanism that opens the door

Problem with that is the motor burns out rather quick because it takes more to open the door than it does to lock the door. I would suggest to get a kit from AutoLoc (google for there website) They make really good reliable stuff that is warrented. One of the best brands I'v seen, and they sell parts individually or as a kit.

[Jetts]

yea streetbeat has autoloc kits somewhere
my friend works there and im sure they have them

ive said it before and I'll say it again......spend $2 on your car and you'll still have a $2 car......if you fuckin wanna cheep out on shit, then do it.....I dont bullshit around with half assin something.....if its not gonna be done right the first time then have fun fixing it and re-doing it later down the road......must be nice to all of a sudden be in the bush with no phone or anything and suddenly your $2 door lock popper busted.......sweet !
