Mounting the Optional Door Pop Hardware
Remove the door panel covering access to the desired deployment door. Find a connecting
rod between the door opening handle and the latch release mechanism that does not have a
heavy return spring. This rod when pushed or pulled depending on design, should open the
door with minimal effort. Find a mounting location for the door release solenoid (DRS)
that allows the DRS rod to run parallel to the connecting rod you have selected. It is likely
that you will need to bend or trim the DRS rod to some degree for a good fit. Attach the
DRS rod to the door latch connecting rod using the provided mounting clamp and screws.
If the door latch connecting rod is pulled toward the DRS to open the door, then extend the
door solenoid to full stroke and with a center punch mark the spot of the two mounting
holes of the DRS. If the door latch connecting rod is pushed away from the DRS to open
the door then compress the DRS to a closed stroke and use a center punch to mark the spot
of the two mounting holes of the DRS.
Even though the system can disarm and unlock the doors before the door is popped, a more
reliable method of installation is to disconnect the outside handle at the plastic snap connect-
ing the handle rod to the latch. You can unsnap the plastic clamp and drop in the DRS rod
after creating 2 90 degree bends or square loop. It is recommended that you install a manual
bypass cable that can connect to the same clamp. If the outside handle is disconnected you
can attach the rod of the DRS to the door release mechanism without using the mounting
clamp.
Example mounting in
parallel to existing latch
rod with mounting
clamp.
Example mounting on a Crown Victoria
with outside handle disconnected.
