    I ordered one from Amazon and will test this weekend. Thank you for showing me that. I have some concern if tucked into a tight space behind the dash the wire feedthrough style might have some interference.

    A: About 2 inches. Most systems only need about 1. The motor stops itself once it reaches 600 pounds of resistance.
    That makes sense, thanks. I guess with this arrangement if you wanted you could use a stronger longer throw actuator as long as the relay worked it would matter.

    John, how is the car treating you? She is really a beautiful ride. I love the black contrast against the chrome and silver. I'll bet you get a lot of attention.
