Whitelightning Posted October 16, 2004 Author Share Posted October 16, 2004 If I can do it myself - it could be a weekend project - Yay Besides, I spent all my money on women and cars ! Which is why I need a project - coz I dont get out much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesG Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 Sorry if I'm being stupid, but what exactly is "delocking"? It sounds like removing the locks entirely which might be good if you live on an empty desert island with only your supra for company, but not so good for London! So does it mean filling in and smoothing over the keyhole? I can't comprehend why anyone would do that. Surely the supra doesn't look much different without keyholes?! James.

Whitelightning Posted October 16, 2004 Author Share Posted October 16, 2004 Well look at these piccies and then ask me again Delocking a Supra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted October 17, 2004 Share Posted October 17, 2004 I spent all my money on women and cars ! Fair enough! I didn't realise you were getting rid of the door handle aswell!. Must admit it does look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude Posted October 17, 2004 Share Posted October 17, 2004 Its possible to trigger the door catches with solenoids operated off a remote , to make it real trick you can fit a small spring so that the door opens off the latch as soon as you activate the solenoid , its advisable to fit a couple of jump poles on the outside of the car incase you get a flat battery allthough as has been said you can climb in thru the tailgate , that car in the oics has also had the fuel cap removed adding to the smooth look . Ian i really dont think this a good idea for your car as it is a distinct possibility it could end up with you inside and somebody trying to open the door to free you , this would be hard to do with no handles !!!!, for safety sake id forget this mod Dude:flame Dev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesG Posted October 17, 2004 Share Posted October 17, 2004 Originally posted by Whitelightning Well look at these piccies and then ask me again Delocking a Supra Oh, you mean "de-handling" then edit: I've just noticed the supra in my avatar has that mod. And it's from the Toyota instruction manual - so it must be an official modification James. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suprafish Posted October 17, 2004 Share Posted October 17, 2004 Another mod i've seen done to another car is to run the cable from the handle to a small latch under the wing mirror, Depends how clever you feel on the weekends Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
