Standard Motor Products DLA 106 Actuator Review

This actuator failed to operate properly after only a few months of use in my automotive project. The only positive aspect was that it was relatively easy to install. However, the constant malfunctions and unreliability made it a complete waste of money. I do not recommend this product to anyone in need of a durable and long-lasting actuator for their automotive needs.

Most of the work involved dismantling everything to get to the door locking mechanism - the unit went in straight away, checked if it was connected to a power supply/switch and installed. Wife is very pleased that all of her door locks work from the driver's master switch.

Perfect for my 04 Sequoia. A little more complicated than the power tailgate which I did the same evening. There are some good videos on YouTube on how to remove the outside door handle (yes I had to remove the handle). Then, once it was free of the handle and the window rail was out of the way at the back, it wasn't so bad. I bought some trim clips from Amazon and they have been very useful to me.
