so far i think im gonna go with puttin it inside the door straight under the latch

thats where mine went, easyest place is straght down.

you loose battery power you can still climb in your car to pop the hood to charge you battery.

done that more times then i care to say kindasad.gif

How does the cylinder com bac up after it dropes to open teh latch?plz tell me how it operates if im wrong.

there is enough pull on the latch to pull the peaces in the cylinder back apart, also its electromagnetic so when the power stops it no longer has a hold on it.

exactly what redice has said, fyi, if you do a search i'm sure you'll find a bunch of my old posts when I was doing the install.

for the record i dont recommend shaving the door handels if its your daily driver, its very hard to align the cable from the cylinder to the lever correctly so that it has enough slack to start the down motion but still pull it all the way down and over time enough pulls will ware it out. additionaly if anything gets lose it can be a pain redoing, and yeah getting locked out of the car or having to climb in though the back really sux. and also on a below frezing day the poppers may not work regardless if the door is frozen shut.
