I just purchased a 93GT with door lock actuators D.O.A. I read about a cheaper fix for the actuator motors on another post. I took their advice and went to Parts Express and bought me a set of high torque actuators for like 4 bucks each. Sure beats 50-75 each for factory models. I then took my door panels off drilled out the rivet holding the old ones in and yanked them puppys. I did have to fabricate a bracket for the new actuators but it was no big deal. I did all of this in one day and they work ten times better than the stock ones. The stock units are a terrible design and if you are going to keep the car give this option some serious thought. It was much easier than I thought.
