Safe Entry
There's nothing cooler than the smooth look on your minitruck. This usually means shaving the door handles, and installing power door solenoids to open the doors. While the task can be daunting, Electric-Life's power door locks and shaved handle kits simplify the task for the average DIY'er. One of the biggest concerns with shaved door handles has been vehicle security. What if someone finds where I've hidden my emergency entry release? Electric-Life now offers a High-Security Emergency Entry System designed to work with its standard manual entry release kit for vehicles with shaved handles. Until now, no emergency-entry kit had offered anti-theft, which made shaved vehicles an easy target. For more detailed information, please visit www.electric-life.com.
