I just like to see how other people did it so I can minimize the amount of mistakes I'll probably make......LOL! I'll be using bearclaw latches with the mounting kit and also the manual release cable for when the battery fails. I'm really interested in seeing your modifications to the door jams, manual cable placement, inside door opening mechanism, door popper placement, etc.
What worked for you and what would you do differently next time?

Anyway if you have any pics or advice I'd greatly appreciate it....

Thanks.

You are really going to enjoy using your new welder on this project Cut and snip, paste to fit !! And get the box of band-aids ready as there are lots of sharp edges inside of the doors just waiting for fresh skin to tear open and leak that sticky red stuff.

Unfortunately what I did on my 'A' roadster really doesn't translate to a '37 very well. What you have to do is to make sure that however you run the actuating rods or cables it is well laid out to miss the window and its' operating mechanism. Are you doing electric windows now? That might make things easier as well.
