Maybe youre not understanding me, THEY'RE ALREADY ON! they open and close perfectly.No gaps. No leaks. Perfect. It bolted right into the factory hardware location although cutting is required. I hardly had to adjust it. And i can open it regularly if i want to. This kit is from verticle doors inc it cost 2500 and is the only patented kit out there they are the only ones to get it right. As far as parking away from people, i do every chance i get but not all parking lots have empty sections in them. There are a lot of places i frequently go that doesnt have much parking. Plus when i parallel park in the city on a busy street, it would be so much easier to put my doors up rather than let them hang out in traffic and have to rush out. I just needed advice about the wiring harness i thought maybe you guys were up to the challenge but it looks like people on here are as close minded as ever. Oh well, i'm on my own. At least my car wont be "custom" with c5 rims,or ttII's, and blackbird stripes like everyones here.

If i'd admit that i'd admit i was doing this for looks.
please sell your F-Body and give it to a more worthy owner, I bet you like those shopping cart spoilers too.

i hope your car looks slammed and tucking some nice wheels before you dare to do lambo doors, otherwise you just not going to pull it off. it only looks good on certain cars.


i'm also hopping you are going just for the looks on the show car.
god forbid you ever flip or roll over. did you ever hear about lambo door crashes and burning alive because you can't get out? show cars only man. google it

def wanna see it - I like em, and glad you found a good product! as far as the wiring, that would be simple to extend, although they def don't make a plug and play kit for it.

I like how he states he doesn't want to hear your guy's opinions and to leave the flaming out and yet you still do it! Ignorant

There was a guy on here, or CZ28 that put Lambo Doors on his Camaro. Do a search and maybe he can help you out.

If I remember correctly, he bought another Camaro and is posting again.

The shocks are ated at 720 lbs. With the door panel off, you have to firce the door down. With it on, it it easy to open or close with one finger. If it wears out i'll just replace it like all shocks. theyre only 50bucks a pair.
Was that a joke? Cause the only way that would work is if everyone in the parking lot had Lambo Doors, otherwise they'll just be hitting your car with their doors;

Others could but you could prevent it better when YOU open the door. Also...have you tried to get out or in from your car when the door is too close to a wall or other car???? I have and, believe me...thats not pretty!
If the kit truly opens up 90 degrees it would be a whole lot easier.

Last time it happened the words that came out of my mouth left a lasting impression over some old folks that were passing by! LOL!

i hear you on the functionality. i hate parking anywhere near cars, always worrying about hitting their car and getting **** for it. i actually had another camaro nail my door with theirs. that was gay.

i would rather have doors like:
