Exclamation LSD Doors

hey guys so i ordered the LSD Doors kit. But i was just wondering if it was bolt on easy to install or mod heavy ? anyone has them and could explain installation we got a garage with tools but not enough knowledge to start modding the panels.

Thanks

you have to do some cutting of the fenders, it is a bolt on but the piston needs
room to go up and down

have you tried getting in and out of a car with the kit installed on it? think twice and try it before you settle on a yes or no answer.

for me it turns getting in and out of the car into a chore, having to bend, twist and even crouch a little to avoid the door which now has less clearance.

both customer cars that had them had equal clearance so i doubt it was just a certain kit.

Well i hope its easy cause i dont wanna do stuff that might make it badly made and it wont pass check up :/ hear u cannot do anything to your car.... Without paying tousands and tousands of bucks ... U can supercharge but its costs 30'000 to make it street legal

you only have to do a little cutting on the fenders where the piston and door stopper will go.
but i had my kit installed by a shop.

I have not been involved with the conversion, but I'm willing to bet some work will have to be done to the electrical wiring going into the door.
