i ordered this from amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B..._dt_b_fed_asin_title .it works very well.one plus to this is it will work with the fiero lock button.use the wires marked main unit and run the third switch wire to ground.it takes a second but they work.i had to use a relay to make the engine cover to release.i fed power to the white with black stripe wire under the steering collumn.this and the solinold and cover wiring is all you need.that takes about two seconds to open.im very happy i bought this.the link doesn't seem to work.

Did you are ready have power locks to begin with and then just upgrade with this kit?

I was going to ask how they compare to the stock stuff but you don't have anything to compare them to. Not a bad price though.

Just did the install of the inexpensive aftermarket Chinese power lock kit. As you can imagine; some parts to fit/cut/bend, holes to drill , wiring, cutting, soldering and tapping the fuse center for power. You end up with power locks that work just like stock but without the inside door switches. The power feature only works by using the remote; but still better than manual. When 2 passengers need to get in, its far easier than walking around to unlock or by reaching across from the driver's seat to unlock.. Power locks are IMO a very big convenience. BTW, didn't find the power lead to all the parking lights to hook up that would blink after locking the doors but found a wire where the former back up lights switch was located in the console and used that. When the locks close the backup lights now brink twice.
