I got a power window kit off Ebay that included a pair of 2 wire power door lock actuators. I think I understand the Actuators / Reverse Polarity wiring diagram in this forum but what kind of switch do I use? Something with lock/unlock symbols would nice that can mount directly in the door panels. Is that something I could find in the junkyard or does anyone sell aftermarket switches like that?

try to find a local shop that carries SPAL products. they make alot of different types of lock and window kits and switches. if you wanna do a switch they will have what you need, but you need a  5 wire actuator to do a switch plus hook into a alarm/keyless entry

You can use the 2 wire actuators to do a switch and connect it to an alarm or keyless entry module.  You will have to use 2 relays, but can easily be done with your equipment.     Let us know if you need a diagram to do that.

It's a plain 2006 Ford F150 XL so no alarm or remote.

Look at the relay section on this forum part marked adding actuators, either use this diagramme, and use a momentary switch to go to ground from each relay 85 or take one Spal type 5 wire switch no relays required wire as follows:-  Assuming switch is the type with 5 contacts  in a row, fused 15amp power supply  to centre, either side to ground, motor wires on outside, if this is going into the door and you want one in the other side, take feeds off the motor wires and with a feed off the 15 amp supply, on second switch run live again to centre contact, run motor feeds to either side of centre then motor wires from outer two. This is exactly the same wiring as the most common electric window type, was that is before they started shoving damned processors on the windows.
