2 X Black Car Plastic Universal Heavy Duty Power Door Lock Actuator 2 Wire 12V

👍👍👍👍👍

I've owned a couple of elderly Saabs for well over twenty years, one a 1990 model and the other, 1997. During this time I've had to replace around four or more central locking actuators, and each has always been with a second-hand purchase. My cars are relatively low mileage for their ages and the replacement units have likely seen more use than the originals had done. This came to light when my last purchase lasted less than 12 months. I did come across a new, old stock item at £45, but decided to give it a miss in preference for a universally fitting unit. I spotted this one on Amazon and made a purchase when a pair were listed for a tenner. Nothing ventured,......They arrived very quickly and the screw holes align perfectly with original equipment, so I know they'll physically fit without any modifications. I haven't tried them in situ; I'll wait until I actually need to fit one. However, I have tried the pull & push performance with a battery and they do have a very good 'kick'. I have no doubt that they will be well up to the job.

I only used one actuator to replace a failed unit, does the job well and have a spare now for next time.

Good

Ordered this part for my Land Rover Defender. Straight swap with the old broken part. Arrived on time. Good seller that I'll use again when the need arises.

A little on the weak side

I ended up not using these but I tried them for review purposes they do function as they were intended to. You could use these for a variety of things. They just push and pull whatever theyre connected to

The actuators/solenoids themselves are nicely made with sturdy plastic bodies.The only thing that let's them down is the supplied plates to mount them on is too flimsy and not big enough to use.Not a problem for someone like myself with a workshop of tools to hand to fabricate something, but something to be mindful of for others
