Default Door Poppers

What brand door poppers are good out there? worst to best, looking for an above average company out there.
What lb would i need? 35lb? 45lb?

I'm wanting to be able to open all 4 doors and the trunk and be able to roll down windows. I've seen some kits for $200 that have 6 channel and allow you to open two front doors then roll down back windows, then pop trunk, then sunroof. or anything you can do with 6 channels. i'm guessing i'm needing 5 channels. rolling down the windows is not that important to me, but would be nice. :D

thanks guys.

auto-loc makes good stuff. You might want to grab a street rod magazine, there are tons of ads for different companies.

it is not as easy as buying a $200 6 channel alarm. you will need a popper (don't remember the cost, but i have auto-loc) for each door you want to open and that takes up (1) channel per door you want open. you will need a separate module for the window which takes up a channel and that runs from $75-$125. If you want the front and rear windows to roll up and down then you need teo of those. the trunk uses the same popper as the doors and that is another channel. everything starts to add up, so you will be well above $200.

Auto-Loc has different poppers. one for doors and one for the trunk. go ahead and use the one for the trunk on the doors as it is stronger.

These are about the best available http://store.gaugemagazine.com/index...OD&ProdID=1827

I've never had one go bad on me and I have installed several kits. We us them on full size trucks without any problems.
