I just purchased the door locks also. How can you go wrong for under 10 bucks including shipping.
Not to go off topic but gothamems, i just saw on your signature that you have the 3M clear bra. Can you tell me where you found that? I have been looking but unable to find one. Thanks

RE: Strut Tower Caps AWSOME DEAL!!! PICS
Ok guys, I installed my strut tower caps today which probably took less than 5 minutes, but here are a few pointers based on my installation experience. First, the main strut tower cap is equipped with an o-ring but the smaller caps are not, no biggie. Well, I know just how neurotic some of us can be about our paint and I didn’t want the smaller caps sitting directly on my paint even though it is under the hood. Here’s my solution … I went to Lowe’s and purchased 8 rubber washers, 7/16 X 1 X 1/16, when you install them you’ll have to stretch them over the nut at the base of the bolt, they cover the area very well, and are the exact diameter of the base of the smaller caps. I also used loctite blue, removable loctite, just to be on the safe side and hand snugged them down. I figured I’d post because I know some of you guys purchased them after seeing my post yesterday. Here a few pics…

Nice looking caps, but I do think it would be a problem on the four nuts used to secure the STB. Too bad, because they are nice, and a great price.....
