wire instead of rods.

hello all i need to add actuators to a new 2005 accord but instead of old rods like before it comes with the new design wire, is there any new actuators or way to make this work or do i have to rig something to make it happen?

i did a hyundai with cable locks. i put a couple of bends in the lock rod to get it where i wanted it. but in the end i had drilled a hole in the plastic behind the lock switch and bent a hook in the after market lock bar. it works fine and haven't had a problem with it yet, its been about a year. However, it was indeed a pain in the a.. and not worth the time and money.

i have done it before but im with the others on this one the customer comes back about 3-4 times a year to have them fixed.

This an easy one to do. Go to your local Honda dealer and order all 4 power door locks. They come with the latch assembly. They are kind of a pain to put in but after doing a ton of them it is now easy. The front doors are more difficult. I do not try to hack up the old ones as the factory parts are cheap. I think I pay like $15 for the rears per and $25 each for the front. The only mod you have to make is connecting the wires up to the actuators. I have never had one returned, they are factory! If you need the part numbers just ask. DanDan

Most of the times with the cables instead of rods it is easier to attach your actuators directly to the lock button itself, or to the latch assembly itself. Factory parts as suggested isn't a bad idea either. Mike
