Article By Randy Irwin

Time Frame: 3 Hours

Can you even buy a car anymore without power door locks? It’s gotten to be second nature to just push a button on your key fob to open the doors or pop the trunk. Remember when you had to actually stick the key in the door or trunk lock and turn it? That’s all gone now along with the dinosaurs it seems. There are several door and trunk lock kits on the market, many of the kits are really over-engineered to be used on early model cars. The Electric-Life kit from CCI is just perfect for either a two or four-door car and can be used with a power trunk lock kit if you have one. The electric door lock actuators are easy to wire up and mount to the inner door skins. There are safety features built into the kit so you can be sure that you and the car will be safe.
