the best way to fix the doors is to buy some of these on fleabay,
Item number: 220000767915

then just install them along with the factory ones. my front door locks were almost completely gone, but the back worked fine. I got a set of these and installed them on all 4 doors. the work really well now, and if they ever fail again, it will be really simple to replace the additional actuator.

Thanks Empiretc,

Mine are startin' to go on my 01.

Is it easier to install the aftermarket actuators alongside the OEM ones instead of replacing the OEM ones?

Also, any trouble getting your key fob to work with these? I have keyless entry, but no alarm system.

I'm just a little leary of $13.99 for four, when the darn dealer wants $60 each.

Thanks, Craig
