[DML] RE: Lockzilla or WingsAloft???

["darryl" <darryl@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Tom W. said "I am waiting for the Zilla Door Launcher system to be produced and I will be quite honest with you that if Bob Zilla were to announce that his Door Launch system was not going to be produced I would buy Toby's kit."

Tom, that's the problem.  The Zilla openers have been "coming soon" for years now, while DPNW's are readily available and have been sold for close to 17 years (under the Specialty Automotive name before)!  They have a proven reliability record with dozens and dozens of kits sold with ZERO problems.  They use modern actuators instead of heavy, high-current solenoids.  Plus, did I mention that they are available NOW?  I don't understand why anyone would want to keep waiting so they can pay more for an unproven system if and when it is ever available.

As for Toby's door lock actuator kit, I installed the first prototype in my third car in 1987, and the 2nd in my current car in 1995.  I never got around to offering it as a kit, mistakingly thinking there wouldn't be much of a market. Boy was I wrong - Toby has refined it to the point where it is probably becoming his best seller, and at a bargain price, too.

While the kit replaces heavy, unreliable solenoids with modern actuators, it does indeed require either a working original door lock relay or a replacement.  So Toby, here's another project I never quite got around to - why not put your head together with David J. and come up with a simple, inexpensive replacement relay for the door locks?  With the heavy current draw of the solenoids removed it should be fairly easy.

(I have no financial or business relationship with DPNW.)
