Default Lambo 90 vertical DOOR INSTALLATION HELP NEEDED

So i buy this Lambo kit so the doors can open up on my c5. I install it and after all the triming grinding and adapting i mount the shocks(possibly in the wrong location) find the torque the shocks create throws the door alignment out of wack and i find it nearly impossible to open the door up form the inside of the car even with both strong shocks installed. once the door gets 2' off the ground the the shocks help it up to its 90 degree point. Anyone that has installed a kit thats similar to this and can shed some light on to where the shocks are supposed to be mounted would be great i have spent 3 days on this so far and i am still on the drivers side. Email me if you like ralphyc81@gmail.com
