I found these for $3.67 each and replaced all five actuators in my EX for under $30 dollars. Took me about thirty minutes per door. They are generic and have to be mounted with two screws. Left the old actuators in. Drilled two holes where the new one would line up with the factory rod, and connected new rod to the old rod with included rod connector. I replaced the rod screws with stainless allen head set screws and used locktite on the threads.

Great price! Were they a direct replacement, or did you have to fabricate a mount and/or attachment? Also, I'd like to hear how they're doing several months ... or even years ... from now.
Thanks |

Roger did you use the same actuator for the liftgate as the rest of the doors or did you have to order a specific part and if so what was the part #?
Thanks! Bill
