just connect a central locking soloniod to the bar that normally goes to the door handle and wire it up through a remote alarm that unlocks the car, when you push the button it opens the door instead of unlocking it, i've done it on loads of different cars, annoys MOT men, also means if the alarm you fit has an imobiliser theres not much point havin an ignition key so i usually just fit an ignition on switch and turn the cigarette lighter into a starter button, mucho fun watching other people try and get your car going. |

On a recent (illicit) test drive I managed to smash the front wheel into the wing  .. so to fix this issue and to give the stance a more consistant look I needed to dial in some negative camber, the method has been done before by a 126 forum member and basically goes like this- take a standard 126 top arm-  create a cardboard template to allow you to know the location of the original bolt centre -  them measure over 9mm for the new one-  drill a guide hole-  then weld up the old one and drill out the full size new one-  and fit to car-  here a pic of the side I hadnt done at that point for comparison-  sad point.. this is the 126th post!  |

Awesome.
The negative on the front has really madea difference...that's the kind of detail that makes a car stand out. Those rear tyres look a bit tight though, I'm guessing you could go narrower if you need to later?
