Re: [DML] Door Launchers

You piqued my curiousity so I called Dan @ DeLorean
Motor Center and got the following information:

They use the actuators from Auto-Loc. I thought that
was what they used, but didn't want to say for sure
until I checked. You can find Auto-Loc ads in any
street rod mag ( I haven't checked the web, but I'm
sure they have a web site as well). 

Dan's only caution was to NOT use any existing wiring.
Run a separate wire to the actuators. They draw a
bunch of current. Dan felt that the reason the long
promised Zilla door launchers had not yet hit the
streets was because of Bob's insistence that no wiring
be changed; ie, plug & play.

I don't have a digital camera, but I'd be happy to
take a picture of the launchers to show you the
location Don & Dan have used for their set-up. I
could scan it and send it to you in a couple of days.

Later

Dick
