Default EK Power Locks (Help choosing actuators)

I know we're not supposed to post links to eBay, but this seems like a pretty good deal and I was wondering if this is a reliable actuator.

If any one has used THIS particular model, what's your judgment?

I don't want to get stuck with a dud, but I don't have a lot of money to spend on these things either.


Picture is only for refference, to see the one I'm referring to, you have to click on the link below :

Go to a salvage yard and get factory honda... ALL the aftermarket ones I've seen used allways break the doorlock.

unless you can get the oems for cheap, those actuators will work fine. i have a set in my hatch for 3 years goin strong and no broken parts. works great and cost cheap.

Looks like the same ones I have in my car. They work fine with no problems. Make sure they are mounted correctly though.

Mine is a DX hatchback, so it doesn't have power locks at all, that's why I'm looking at these.

Since most of you say they work, I'll try them, too. I'll post my results in a week or so.

Bump for this! Did you put them in yet?

I'm looking to add power locks to my 96 Cx for keyless entry when I get an alarm
