Ok i'm doing an install on a 2005 4 door dodge neon. I'm putting in aftermarket actuators (DEI's) and an ASTRA 600. I looked at some wiring diagrams for the car and it looks like it only has trigger wires for the two front doors, but what about the rear doors? Do they run on the same trigger wires? The diagram tells me to diode isolate the trigger wire which is fine but if all 4 doors run on 2 trigger wires do I need 4 diodes or 2?

Also I ran into a bit of a problem with my actuator clamps. The door rod on the neon is far to thick for my clamp to fit on there to secure it to the actuator rod. Any other ideas on what i can use? Some type of different clamp of some sort? (I aint welding it).

Thanks in advance,

LF Latch		TAN		(-)		IN HARNESS IN DRIVERS KICKPANEL
	RF Latch		BLUE/ORANGE		(-)		IN HARNESS IN PASSENGER KICKPANEL

Blue/orange should cover all doors except drivers so you only need 2 diodes total. on the actuators i've used a split bolt. its just a nut and bolt but it has a slot in it so you slide it on the factory rod and the actuator rod and then tighten the nut so it "sandwiches" together nice and tight. good luck

ahh! You're a genius! So hard trying to find something that works! Googling things like actuator connector and things like that! Genius! Does a homedepot or Lowes carry something like that? or do I need to go to an electrical supplier?
