Question People with shave door handles

what spring loaded poppers do you use. I'm getting a pair of new ones because the one that came with the kit are garbage and don't open the door enough to fully unlatch it.

I use a brake spring. Are you sure the latch or door is opening correctly? I went a few months without a spring and had no problem at all

The latch and everything seems to be good. My prob is that when the door unlatches it catches the safety catch and I have to pop the door for a second time while pulling on the door..... it just doesn't look like the popper has a long enough stroke to fully push the door open. So I figer I just need a better quality popper.

Also.... where is the popper mounted..... mine is at the bottom corner where the rubber door stop used to be.( Just a dumb question)

I never used a popper on my blazer. It always popped open with no problem, well except the one time the battery went dead.
