Yes mine are spring-loaded. How far do your doors open?

Mine open about an inch, enough to get your finger tips in. Mind taking a picture of where you placed the poppers? I've been meaning to install mine but I'm iffy about drilling a half inch hole and it end up in the wrong spot lol..

bdeitemeyer is running my old SPAL 40lb kit. it gives it a nice push in the ***..

but mounted the popper above the door switch thing.
and when i had it i just mounted it in the door switch thing since there was already a hole-just lost curtsy lights when door opened.

Yeah I'll take pics today. I drilled holes for the poppers just above the stock "door sensor" (rubber piece that detects when the door is closed/open)...pics will be up later.

I hope the guys whose working on my ride now will fix it, it's a pain in the arse right now. I'm gonna use the input from you guys for sure. I need to get back in the state to see exactly what's going on with the wiring though. I'm using autoloc so I hope their quality will shine through at this point. As for the shop I'm gonna do a drive by on that clown... Or atleast sue for the damage to the front end. I will try to get pics of slab soon.

AutoLoc is the best there is hands down. Shouldn't have a problem with the system itself.

once opend invest in emergency cable or a kit call SPAL. i NEVER had any problems with them for 2+years.

hope that kinda helps..really sorry to hear about suck a bad shop..

First thing that came to mind. Be sure to obviously hide it well but always have a backup. I've heard way too many horror stories of people having to destroy there interiors over shaved handles with no back up.

I have an emergency release cable but for some reason it's stuck and hard as if glued it used to work but then it stopped going out all the way so I took it to the shop to fix and after that it appeared "glued" or stuck. I don't know how to fix that either. Damn shop just didn't like my car or maybe he didn't like me. The guy works on 10,000$ paintjobs and I think sum ni&&az are mad their candy isn't as delicious as they thought so they went after lee (owner). Then that fool took my car and did drive bys with it to frame me while I'm actually in Dallas. Luckily he got pulled over and arrested with coke and arms. Hopefully the law will show him arm and hammer is illegal while driving.
