I would recomend autoloc as well, if you dont mind paying a little more. When I shaved mine I used a regular power lock solenoid. I removed one of the springs for the latch mechanism to make it easier to open, then I bent the rod that comes with the solenoid to push the latch open and it works great. It only cost me $65 for the alarm to open the door and an additional $6 in solenoids. I posted some pics on the board here a while back but since the search is not working it may be hard to find them. If you need me to take pics of how I did my install I might be able to take some this weekend. Good luck
