Re: Electric Door Locks ?? (VettePower)
I bought an aftermarket remote alarm, power locks and relays.
It's a pretty easy install. It cost about $70 total.
No inside switches, just the remote to lock and unlock.

Re: Electric Door Locks ?? (VettePower)
O.K. here's what I did. I am showing pics of others install, because my pics are still in the camera (it has only been 6 months, give me a brake :D )
Thanks to anybody that took these pics.
I started with a remote lock kit. I think I paid about $40-50 on bay.
Then bought 2 power lock kits. I think I paid about $10-14 for both kits.
This install is how I mounted the plunger to the door and drilled for the wiring.
I used the included bracket to hook up to the door rod. I had to clip one finger off of clip and file the bracket down to get a good fit. I preferred this for better leverage and it is not allowed to slip on the rod.
Sorry this pic is not better, it only shows how I hooked to the door rod.
This shows a little better what I am talking about.
Hope this helps.

Here's a couple of pictures of an install and a circuit diagram (I think Zwede provided it to me) the actuators are from Parts Express, http://www.partsexpress.com
The actuators are cheap! And the install is very easy.
