what are you ideas for door openers did you find a kit you can open any or all 4 drs I was going to shave mine but may just update to newer sub handles going to use 4 rear dr handles(no key holes)
did you shave the tailgate too

i planned on buting 2 auto loc kits. putting the front doors on remote and the two rear doors on a button on the dash or something. i didnt do the tailgate yet, my shop closed down and i had to prematurley paint the truck. i havent figured out what to do about the tailgate handle cause i dont want to have to get in and turn the key on to throw some groceries in the back.

Silver looks good. I'm in Memphis too. Maybe I'll see you around when you get it finished.

i hope to have it done by summer but well see how the money works out. i used rm paint . the color was real transparent so i used my own concoction of silver to cover it first then i finished with the right col0or. all in all about 7 coats of base and 3 coats of clear.

Old post but you can remote open your back window. Auto Loc should have been able to tell you that... I went to their old shop, not the new one but they were super nice and very helpfull!

I just IM'd you my email so if you have any questions I'm more than happy to help.
