Wanting to add power locks

Hello to all. I am very happy with my new 06 CTD. So far at 2000 miles I am to say the least impressed. Man what power. The only thing I would like to add for now ( I know i will go big one day) is power door locks. I bought the stripped down power nothing but the motor 2500 quad cab. Any suggestions?

Also how do I put info in my sig. on my posts?

Im interested in knowing this as well. Are the trucks prewired? I would think they were since everything else is prewired like the overhead console and the fog lights but want to know for sure before I would go out and buy a "universal" kit

Just go to any big stereo shop (BestBuy, Circuit City, Car Toys, etc.) and get a keyless entry or an alarm with keyless entry installed and get them to install door lock actuators. You will be able to lock and unlock the doors with the keypad (comes with the keyless entry kit) on your keychain.
You could also ask them to install a momentary switch somewhere in the truck so you will have a switch inside the truck. Did this on my jeep, works good!

Nathan who did you use and how much did it cost? I am in Bean Station so anything East of Knoxville within reason will do if the cost is not outrageous.

I got a set of actuators and an alarm/keyless entry setup for mine. The locks work good. Not that hard to install either....
