CTScott,

That looks great. I think it's pretty much what I had in mind, but I was going to mount the bracket on top of the actuator, which would have been foolish :) Your solution looks pretty elegant.

Did you attempt to use the existing wiring harness and connect the actuator to that? If not, did you manage to route the actuator wires through the existing conduit between the door frame and the main body?

Thanks again for the photos!

I had to run a few wires through the door frame for the locks and windows. It is actually pretty easy, as you can feed them in behind the connector behind the kick plate, and then you can pop the rubber sleeve off on both ends to make it easy to get the wires through.
