    Door solinoids

    Anyone ever do pop locks on a coupe?

    That is all...

    I did a couple of them with door poppers. I think Auto-loc makes ones that bolt right to the bear claw latches that FFR supplies. They work really well. In fact I have done them in the HotRod as well.

    I cobbled up one out of a Summit Racing solenoid and some SS wire and etc hooks. Works fine even without door poppers as when the latch is released the door automattically pops open on its own. Later, after I've got the body back on (will be off shortly for finish work and paint) I'll install a remote button I have kicking around so I don't have to hide a switch. I've only got this on the driver's door.
