door latches

On my 51 I want to shave the door handles.
What is the best kit for bear claw latches?
And any notes on instalation?
I do have the relays and remote allready.

I used latches from Rocy Hinge Co. in Ohio on my 48. This set had the solenoids attached to the hinge already but they do sell bear claws without the solenoids also.Price was good and they were good people to deal with. They have a site www.rockyhinge.com if you want to look at it.
