Westy Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Looks clean, but I would prefer to have handles I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Be careful with that when parked! You won't ever be able to let anyone else open the doors, or they'll end up smacking them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parry_10 Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 Be careful with that when parked! You won't ever be able to let anyone else open the doors, or they'll end up smacking them! sorry im lost? what do you mean? The only person that can open either door is me via 2 buttons (one for each door) off a key fob. Obviously you can open them as normal from the inside though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I.e. 'Parry I have left something in your car, mind if I borrow the keys and go get it?' Two seconds later...Ping! Smack! ' Oh dear, The door has whacked someone else's car'. Thats all I meant, looks like you have to be standing there waiting to catch the doors as they open, especially if it's on even a minor slope, the door will come sailing wide open. I'd still prefer handle's personally, but it's a pretty cool effect for a show car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it wont be going anywhere near any car parks especially supermarkets lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I agree it looks cool, and a nice gadget (which is always good), but on a slope or in strong winds you'll have to remember to be there to grab it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraStar 3000 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Humm,... Orinoco Flow - Nice! Never soon one of those before? Declutters the door which can only be good How much and where from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robzki Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Can they be opened even if the door is locked? Also can they be opened while the car is moving? Nice mod though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimojameso Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Think its mot fail as the car needs to be openable from the outside. For example if you have an accident people need to open it from the ouside. Most people put a button under the mirror. Then its legal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo2810 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Humm,... Orinoco Flow - Nice! Never soon one of those before? Declutters the door which can only be good How much and where from? Perfect for you Ed, the less handles on your car the better Doesn't look like you've thought it through if it's an MOT fail, Parry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I might get one for the front door of my house, would make the shopping easier to bring in. Or, fit 100 of these under your passenger seat to help the mrs get out of the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then its legal key entry through boot, if not buttons can be installed easily under the wing mirrors etc no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parry_10 Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 I think it looks so much better without those bulky door handles and its a much smoother/cleaner look. I like it thats all that matters:p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra N_A Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 hmmm it seems to open the door a little violently do you not think?? wouldnt want to do that to close to objects or other cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parry_10 Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 lol I dont understand how people think that the door will hit a car parked next to it if you watch the video properly it barely opens, it doesnt open enough for you to get in so if something was really that close that it would hit it then you wouldnt be opening the door in the first place would you....

Parry_10 Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 Thats quite nicely done but what happens if your battery dies? do you have to go in through the boot? yeh just open the boot via the key and my battery is in the boot anyway, simples:thumbs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
