Has anyone installed door lock actuators in a 1999 jeep wrangler with removable doors?my question is how did you wire them-did you use some kind of plug so the doors can still be removed.

Yep, many time and since it's just 2 wires just use covered spade terminals, reversing one side so it can only plug in one way...

What about the contactors from sliding door kits?

Look in the Metra catalogue.

Tommy, just noticed your signature. May I use I can't be bothered with apathy?

Since I'm semi-retired, it's brass monkeys and the clocks in the UK go to winter time tomorrow, I want to procrastinate until spring.

Of Course...

If i remember correctly... The nylon straps that hold the door from opening fully has slits in both ends and is a nice sleeve for after-market wiring...

Lining them up is where the plasticine (play dough? modelling clay?) comes in.
