started shaving...
i just started installing my silinoids in my truck and i encurred some issues that i think i fixed. was wondering what anyone else did to overcome these issues.
1. i took the arm that "locks" the door off and welded the sliding tab in the "unlock" position. 2. i bent some 18gauge steel to mount the silinoid in the same place the stock interior door handle was. here are some pics of what i had to do to make it work: p.s. i have only done the right rear door on my cc. anything different to expect on the fronts. because the fronts are common among all 73-87s? right? |

here is my plan for the door panel. the raised section in red will be cut out. then i will cut out a piece of 1/4" thick wood to the same shape as what is in yellow. then i will fill in the creavace (sp)? , doorlock hole, and the ashtray hole so the tweed will cover nice and smooth. then of course get a nice button to open the door and a new window switch. sound good? anyone got pics on their approach?

Lets play the "what if" game for a minute. What if you need to get out in an emergency? Maybe the emergency is something like your battery shorted out rendering your electrical system inoperative, and now your truck is on fire...... |
