saw it on overhaulin and in car and driver a few times...i found a pic on their site with a Z that has it done...it leaves the outline of the handle in the door all you do is unlock from the remote then touch the door and it pops open...looks pretty cool actually

dont know if this Z belongs to anyone on here sorry for using your pic.

 

Where do I get that?

 

thats what im saying...im thinkin about getting it too....you cant order yet..but heres the link

http://www.lafranceautoworks.com/

i guess they do sell it then...$399....not bad at all...if u dont want the outline of the handle you can get a sensor placed on your window somewhere...but that means fingerprints on the window all the time.

they have most the colors too.

edit this...$399 a door so $800 just for the parts...then i wonder what installation would cost

i just added it to my cart and came out $798

 

you should be able to install this yourself. I mean its prepainted and you can remove the handles your self.

800, kinda high, but cheaper than shaving?

 

Wow, that's pretty nifty! I love gadgets!

 

i was just thinking about that....just remove the door handle and wire in the magic touch...i doubt its brain surgery...i think if you want the complete shave look then you have to get it done

$800 is steep but def cheaper then shaving i would have to say...not sure

 

$399 EACH
I like them alot, but I dont know about $799 total.

 

yea im actually feeling this...going to have to debate on it for a little bit...if anyone does purchase it i would suggest the backup battery for $50 in case something dies lol you can still get in your car or else you have to go through the hatch lol

def a nice clean look on the doors without the handles...i mean i do like our handles but i do like this gadget also....decisions decisions

 

Thanks guys for finding the information and doing all the research... I've added it to my list of future modds.

 

I guess b/c they are new and if you want to really be different ppl will pay for it

 

yea its possibly on my future list of things to get...

no problem

 

is it me or did i just read that you can use compound to get off the existing door handle outline if you dont want it there?

also wonder if they will do a group buy if we got enough people hmmm

 

damn thats HAWT

 

if the doors dont work, the hatch wont either.

 

That is sweet. Great find. Im gonna try'em for sure.

 

yea but the hatch wont be working off the same thing as the doors...im saying if the door sensor didnt work for some reason or it died...the hatch wont work either?

 

thanks

i think we should all shoot for a group buy maybe get them down a little bit in price...doesnt hurt

 

yeah. if your car battery dies for some reason, you have no mechanical way to get into the car. Since the hatch and door locks rely on the battery working, youd be sol. The backup battery would allow the sensors to work when your car battery is dead.


my question is, will the remote work if the car battery is dead? and if it doesnt work, then how would the sensors get the unlock signal.

also, you guys think thisll prevent the easy break in method?

 

good question

 

This sounds almost as cool as the auto open doors...
