So 4 doors and i didnt want to use either one. I took a look on craigs list just for anything i might see. Yup 2 GSR doors 1 1/3 hr away from here. picked them up yesterday. looking good. they cut the harnesses. but i still have the ones from my old DA that i bought cause i had added oem power locks. Oh and Aztec green. I was in my garage just staring at the color. its very nice. but not my tatse. hahaa ANTHRACITE!!!!

Quik question. I can paint a car with 1 QT of paint? i doubt i need a gallon no? shits pricey. for good paint

any way for anyone in the area I have 2 pass and 2 drive sde door extra.

and to ship Ive got a set of door lock actuators a set of lock switches. door panels have 1.5" tweeter holes in em.

yea it wasnt fun at all. but since i was swaping the entire main harness the whole dash had to come out. ive heard you can just drop the column and leave it connected to the uhm steering rack(?)

but now after putting the column back in( i took it entirely out) the tilt is very tight. i think i didnt put the bolts in correctly where the column shaft connects to the steering rack. so its gonna come back out

or maybe over tightened some bolts...its possible. i didnt fully get to work on my car when i did my conversion i had help while i wasnt there to work on it

yes your right. there is a bolt that can loosen the column. but it seems miss alligned. eh ill check it another day. right now im working on the doors. I got 1 on and i swapped the wire harness from my old DA into the new door. the guy cut the old harness.( someone would have loved to have it) right now im messing around with the door handles. im trying to install the DB1 rear handles for the shaved keyhole look

I gotta get my other DA stripped before winter hits

I really need to find a cheap welder machine. so i can deal with the rust spots. Kinda hard getting things going when you gotta buy all the tools at the same time. i also need a frikin paint gun. id love to get a DeVilbiss but might end up getting some cheap shit.

im not sure i understand. keyless entry can control the locks . go oem and you know it will work. if it ever fails jump thru the hatch. if you got that shaved....... uhm maybe a hidden push button.
also whats the diff between having the window down in the garage and up on the street as far as unlocking? if thats what you were getting at
