Electric door locks

Trying to convert manual door locks to electric door locks on my 2017 f150. Ordered a couple of kits but they fit doors with rods. My door locks uses cables. Does anyone know where I can get a kit to work with cables not rods. Thanks

You will get a better response by posting to the correct forum. This is for 2021 and up F-150's.

I doubt there is a dedicated kit, since so few are built with manual windows and locks. Converting to OEM oarts will be tough, as it will likely require a new harness (unless the plugs are already there by default) and the use of Forscan to enable it in the BCM.
