Rear Door popper

[Vehi-Cross-Az]

this seemed to be the most logical place to mount one
this is a mock up for test reasons, I took a spring
tack welded a washer to the bottom, then found the mounting
spot. I then drilled a 1/8" hole in the body panel and sctewed
the unit onto the body. done.
1 thing I will say, Im going to add a longer, maybe even a little
stronger spring then the one pictured.

I have Tone's door popper installed in my VX and his kit came with a rubber bumper, or sorts, with a contained spring so it wouldn't mess up the finish on the door. I don't have the spring installed in the VX, but I do still have it at home if you'd like me to take a picture of it so you can get an idea for your kit.

The raw spring would scare me a bit as I would be afraid that it would scratch the paint or plastic (depending on what it is pushing on). That's just my two cents.

This pusher works very well. I would suggest however using with a backing plate since it is mounted in plastic panel.

Mine is mounted to the solid metal part of the body
no chance of that area getting messed up
but would like to see how he did his rubber bumper
Where mine actually hits the door now, had a rubber bumper
but it was too small and the spring sometimes would hang up on it.
My other option is to put install a taller, larger diameter rubber
bumper on the door and I think that would be fine too.
Lets see what yours looks like .

Here is the bumper/ spring that came with Tone's popper kit. As you can see it's all self contained and it's pretty strong. You really have to push on it to get it to budge, so I'm sure it would push the rear door open with no problem. You would have to find a place that had enough room for the pusher when it is in the closed position, and was strong enough to resist the pressure of the spring, but I know others have done it before.

I have a backup of tones website on one of my computers, they have the install pictures and instruction. I'll look for it and get back to you...

Edit: I actually found the PDF and also merged two extra photos into it for visual reference.

I hope this helps, because this is one kit i've been wanting to pick up but was to lazy to piece everything together myself.
