[V8] Power Door Lock Switch

[Steve Buchholz]

Both my '91 5-speeds have the unlock switch on the door card and struts for the trunk lid. My preference would be springs as they can be adjusted and aren't an arm and a leg to replace when they lose pressure. I'd consider putting some sort of sleeve over the springs if they made an objectionable noise. Not sure you can easily swap from one to the other though.

Ditto on my 5spd.
