i just bought actuators for power locks for my car and i was wondering if anyone had used a universal actuator before? this looks like it is going to be a pain in the butt....

 

What brand did you buy? Justs take off the door pannel and to the bottom of the door, where it latches, there is where you should mount the actuator. There is the lever for the door lock.

 

so its at the bottom of the door? even if it has manual locks to begin with i can still mount them there? I dont know what the brand name of the actuators are, i got them off ebay and they are sittinin my backseat right now, but they were a great deal i think 9 dollars plus 5 for shipping and handling... and they came brand new in the box never opened with all the wiring, i picked up the power lock swithches from the junkyard, so i am hoping that i will install them soon... HAS ANYBODY ELSE EVER DONE THIS? If any one knows of any sites or anything please post back!

 

That's where the factory ones were located. Follow the linkage for the lever to the door lock all the way to the latching mechanism. You will see where the linkage meets the latch. As far as website, I'm not sure. I hope this helps.

 

thanks man appreciate it...
