Default tokico d-spec remote adjuster question???

DO you mount these in the car? Im having my Tokico d-specs with remote adjusters, steeda ultralite lowering springs and steeda HD upper control mounts installed tomorrow by a local shop and am wondering where you mount them???? Pics would be awesome. I have the shaker1000 sub in the trunk (i am assuming you put them in the trunk??) Please help!!

I think these do not mount...is this correct? Please let me know. I did a search and it appears that the key just gets put in youre glovebox or centerconsole...not mounted

You can put it on your keychain for all it matters. Just don't loose it.

The remote adjusters are about 8" long. What I've seen done is cut a small hole in the carpet and poke the adjuster through. This way you don't have to peel back the carpet or remove the subs to adjust the rears. You won't need the key for the rears with the adjusters, only the fronts.

I hope these are insanely helpful, although I don't have the rear subs and thus don't really need these remotes. But I think you should get the idea:

thanks argonaut, that was indeed very helpful. get the idea now. I didnt understand before where the adjusters were used ( i didnt install them) but now realize that i do it from the top. Im assuming that i need to adjust the fronts from under the hood?

Your welcome.

Yes, that is correct,you have to open the hood and insert a small "key" (comes with the D-Specs) into the top of the fronts to adjust them. I just keep the key in my center console.

Thanks again Argonaut, im not unfamiliar with mustangs, just with adjustable shocks lol. I say this because after rereading this i realize this was probably a very novice question lol.I have the 2 keys in my center console as well because the shop that installed them said to be carefulnot to lose them.Again, thanks for all your help, its is greatly appreciated!!
