Default shaved door handles kit

i'm thinking of getting my door handles shaved when i take my car in for some body work. i already looked at some kits for 2 door cars, i'm just not quite sure what kind of solendoid i need, i've seen a 35 pound and a 45 pound force solendoid kit. which one would be ideal for my 94 2dr accord lx? thanks in advance.

I would say get the heavier one cause It sucks when you have to hit it a few times to get them to open.

What do those kind of kits run usually for something like the 45 pound. I would hate to be someplace where i need to get into my car quick and have it not pop...

the 35lb kit will work just fine, the 45 is more designed for older more solid vehicles if you get my drift. i have the spal kit and its worked good for the past year even through winter. about 100 bucks...

dont do it, you'll regret it later. But if you must a 35lb will do the job, make sure there is no slack on the cable. good luck

haha, yea, i thought about the lambo door conversion, but thats too expensive for my liking, maybe i'll do that as a future project, not now, i'm more going for the clean look rather than the WOW look
