assuming youre controllin the units w/ an alarm:

there are two wires that inputs to the alarm wire, unlock and lock. those are teh two wire you need to hook to the switch.

spal has them on EBAY for 10-15 bucks.
3 wires switch, the other one that i didnt mention is the input of ground (-).

do ur doors lock/unlock with the key now? ie did u fit a central locking relay as well? are the actuators 5-wire or 2-wire ? ul need at least one 5-wire motor (actuator) and that should be fitted in the drivers door, are they after market motors or genuine ones from a similar car? the switch for locking/unlocking should be a rocker type (one that springs back when u push it) and have a permanent ground (common) with one wire going to the negative trigger locking  wire on the central locking relay and the other going to the negative trigger unlocking wire on the c/l relay ie when u press the rocker switch one way it sends a negative pulse down one wire then when u press it the other way it sends a negative pulse down the other wire thus locking and unlocking the doors.
