I tried fitting a kit like that on mine, but found it wasn't powerful enough to operate the lock. Good job I just fitted one of the solenoids and run it off a spare battery before fitting it fully!

The solenoids n my doors - although not working are big beefy solenoid jobbies.

I have disconnected the metal rods that actuate the door lock so it is now easier to turn the key manually. Before it was nigh on impossible and was in danger of bending the key everytime I turned the lock.
