CHEAP BUT GOOD in Motors

I BOUGHT THIS FOR MY 2011 FORD E350 VAN FOR THE FRONT DRIVER DOOR AND IT WORKS GREAT. BUT YOU DON'T NEED TO GET THE RIVET INCLUDED, I replaced the bolt and nut instead. THE PRODUCT WORKS GREAT.

Pros
  • Excellent Construction
Cons
  • No

Good product for electric door lock

Installed on a 2012 E250 van. The used old link above is very difficult to remove from the original. It is also possible to detach the old operator from the rivet mount inside the door. And put/insert/install the new one back into the original silver bracket. The product works fine.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Poor instructions

Popped out of the clip: Replacement

Although the clips were more difficult to install than I thought the door operator worked perfectly. However, I stored my RV for the winter and everything was fine, but it didn't work this spring. After removing the door panel I found that the mounting clip had slipped off. The drive still worked perfectly, just had to reinstall the clamp on the drive. I wish there was an easier way.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Obsolete

Great fit! suitable for spare parts

The top hook is very difficult to remove so I saw that it can be removed. Then refitting the actuator would be difficult too, so I reused the metal clip that was already on the car and removed it from the replacement actuator (note which pins it sits on and which pins detached from the old one). Using a pick or small screwdriver, separate the top of the replacement drive, then the top of the vehicle-installed drive and pry the failed drive out. Slide the old hook onto the new drive (may need to

Pros
  • few competitors
Cons
  • unreliable
