| haha calm down, when i did mine, all i did was file a bit of the hole in the door for the lock to fit then get the clip on some how. I used the new metal ring dilly though. |

| I agree, on a sedan the boot lock clip was a bitch to get on... I used the clip that came with the solex's and pushed it on bloody hard, probably bent it in the process to make it fit, but that was all I did... it did take me quite a while to get on though, but not it is bloody tight and the lock doesn't move, and it's been there for around 6 months. |

| Yeah, I got Gemini Solex locks, and the front doors were fine, just slid in, it was only the boot that was any problem. I did the same as Matt and took the boot off and put it upside down, and I'm pretty sure that it wasn't going on without a bit of shoving and bending. I don't 'think' I'm that sped-ish that I was doing it completely wrong.... |
