Power Door Lock Actuator
The Install Bay DLA is a 12 Volt two wire actuator designed to add power door locking to a vehicle door that currently uses a manual rod style lock. One actuator is required for each door you wish to convert, and the unit is sold individually. It operates reliably across a temperature range of 30°C to 70°C.
Vehicle owners adding central locking
This actuator suits owners retrofitting power locks to doors with existing manual rod mechanisms who need a direct 12 Volt two wire connection. It is not suitable for vehicles that already use factory power lock actuators or systems requiring a different wiring configuration or voltage. Buyers needing a complete kit with harnesses or switches should look elsewhere.
12 Volt two wire specification
The single specification that decides fitment is the 12 Volt two wire electrical interface which must match the vehicle's locking circuit exactly. Confirm the door uses a manual rod style lock mechanism before purchase because the actuator is designed specifically for that conversion. One unit per door is required for full operation.

Questions about this item
What does the 12 V rating mean once the actuator is wired into the car?
It connects directly to a standard 12 V vehicle electrical system so the lock responds immediately when you press the switch.
How does the two-wire interface limit the way the lock is controlled?
The two wires carry power and ground; reversing polarity changes the direction, giving simple lock and unlock without extra control wires.
What space and mounting style does the actuator need to fit a door with a manual rod lock?
It mounts inside the door cavity and links to the existing manual rod, converting that rod movement into powered locking action.
