    Just thought you guys might like to read this. FWIW, the RemoteWing
  uses the same actuators and as far as the door opener part of the system
  is concerned, is based on Darryl's original design.

  Tom W. said "I am waiting for the Zilla Door Launcher system to be
produced and I will be quite honest with you that if Bob Zilla were to
announce that his Door Launch system was not going to be produced I would
buy Toby's kit."

  Tom, that's the problem.  The Zilla openers have been "coming soon" for
years now, while DPNW's are readily available and have been sold for close
to 17 years (under the Specialty Automotive name before)!  They have a
proven reliability record with dozens and dozens of kits sold with ZERO
problems.  They use modern actuators instead of heavy, high-current
solenoids.  Plus, did I mention that they are available NOW?  I don't
understand why anyone would want to keep waiting so they can pay more for an
unproven system if and when it is ever available.

  As for Toby's door lock actuator kit, I installed the first prototype in
my third car in 1987, and the 2nd in my current car in 1995.  I never got
around to offering it as a kit, mistakingly thinking there wouldn't be much
of a market. Boy was I wrong - Toby has refined it to the point where it is
probably becoming his best seller, and at a bargain price, too.

  While the kit replaces heavy, unreliable solenoids with modern actuators,
it does indeed require either a working original door lock relay or a
replacement.  So Toby, here's another project I never quite got around to -
why not put your head together with David J. and come up with a simple,
inexpensive replacement relay for the door locks?  With the heavy current
draw of the solenoids removed it should be fairly easy.

  (I have no financial or business relationship with DPNW.)
