Has anyone ever used one of these?

I was just wondering if they're any good. If you have any experience of them I'd be grateful to hear about it.

Cheers,

Looks pretty much the same as every other universal CL kit. Not a bad price for a 4dr kit though

Why not just get a nova c/l kit ?

probably easier and quicker to fit.

Very easy, I've always used universal kits on Novas. The only thing I had to do was put a couple of extra nuts on the bolts that hold the solenoids to the doors to act as spacers so the solenoid could open and close without fouling the door metal.

Or bend the metal of the door back slightly where you fit it, i had a similar kit on an old nova and it worked a treat, later wired it to a keyless entry doofer too and worked fine:d
