    Awesome. Looks really nice too and the lighted bumper letters turned out good.

    Finished Installing Wings-A-Loft

    This is a pretty awesome product. What is not to love about automatically opening doors? Up until recently I thought I needed to make wiring modifications such as taping into or cutting into original harness wires. By creating a couple Y splitters to feed signals to and from the control unit, this is entirely possible without any modifications to the OEM harness. If you are at all considering this update, stop thinking and do it.

    Toby from DeLorean Parts Northwest was a great help on this as well, assisting with troubleshooting my sticky door seals, couldn't have done it without his guidance!

    Here is a video in action:

    One of two extensions I made to have easy access to the wire used to power the actuator:

    The Wings-A-Loft has got to take the top spot for the best mod for your DeLorean. I don't know how the new ones are, but mine circa 2011(ish) has two options. One key always opens the driver door but you have a choice with the second, you can either open both at once or just the passenger door. I chose both at once since I rarely need to get into the right side only, and it looks so cool when my wife and I are walking to my car and I pop both doors at once. I feel like so kind of theme music should play.

    Yes, it is still setup the same way, and that is how mine is wired. It makes a lot of sense. I almost never would want to open the passenger door without the driver's door so they may as well be linked together. The driver's door is lagging behind the passenger door because it is still sticking on the seals, but I've spent enough time messing with it for one night.

    A little silicone or rubber dressing should do the trick.

    I've tried some Prestone silicone spray, but its not the stuff Toby recommends (he claims LPS brand works better). I'll play with it some more tomorrow to see if I can get it to work better.
