power door locks in 944's/924's/931's/951's/968's
How DO they work? what sort of actuator is it.. where do they bolt on, how does it work with the cable-driven system? Does anyone have any sort of pictures or diagrams of what makes it tick? I tried getting them installed in my 944 but they were un-successful

I gathered that.. but where do they bolt up? what do they look like? do they run on 12v? where can I find these solenoids? (pelican has NOTHING) with door locks

You might try an aftermarket system that clamps onto the stock actuator rod. Try to get one that has something close to a 1/4" (15mm?) throw on it; the kit I bought has 3/4" range of motion and I had to add more clamping power because they were overpowering their connector and slipping out of alignment.

slowazzporsche, Your 84 should have rod actuated locks. The aftermarket system I installed in my 84 has worked great for many years now. I highly recommend it. I think I bought it at Performance Products.

yes, so sorry.. don't know what the hell I was talking about, got confused with the handle.. I don't see why they couldn't have installed them... *ponders* perhaps too lazy to do the work considering it's a flat rate they charge?
