$149.99

The AVS website really blows.

So how's the quality on these? I mean, it is AVS, but they are only 150 bones. No problems so far?

You could tap into your locks... whenever you use your stock remote to unlock the drivers door you could wire it so it activates that silenoid. And then do the same with the passenger side door. That would be easy as hell. But i'm running DEI viper 791xv on my truck and everything is controlled through that.

Re: [How To] AVS Door Acuator Install

Looking at this kit, are the poppers spring loaded only? What if we wanted something more substantial? How do you go about getting some better poppers in the system? Or am I just thinking wrong?

Re: [How To] AVS Door Acuator Install

I got my drivers side installed today... went pretty simple, i got so confused to where the screws went till i re-read the how-to.. haha

Question though, hooking these up to a compustar alarm.. brain 3300, which wires do I use? I have the driver side hooked up to my trunk release temporarely. Which will be my passenger side if all goes well. Should I just hook the other one up to secondary unlock or something??

I cant get my aux outputs to work for some reason.. :|

Re: [How To] AVS Door Acuator Install

I just installed the avs poppers to replace my protocols'. The install is super simple and doesn't require you to drill any holes in your door unlike other poppers. The old poppers kept freezing up and only worked about half the time. If your trying to decide which ones to buy AVS is the way to go. They are also super quite!!!

yeah i dont think that you need to use that for your application. you need to get something for the doors not the trunk.
