(Help) electric cutouts
I’m looking to purchase a set of electric cutouts for my 03 C5. I’ve never had these on a car before so I am new to them. Can anyone point me in the direction to a nice set? Thank you guys!

I put in a set of QTP cutouts and put them right where the cats used to be. Wired into the cabin and put a switch under the dash to open/close.
When they're open its loud as sh*t and shakes the floor pretty good when you step on it.

I installed DMH Low Profile cutouts. Tighter install due to shape and have been flawless for many, many years now.

Been through several. QTP is the only way to go. One car came with DMH or whatever. Kept falling apart. Literally, the motor would get loose and destroy itself/fall out. They have a warranty though! First replacement came in about a week. Add a month to each subsequent failure until you get to 6 months for a replacement or just stopped all together. The cap/cover was bolted to my cutout more than the electric valve was. Went QTP and never had another issue with it. Flawless.
