Ditto. Talk to Spencer at BWA. Dude does some sweet work. Ain't nobody to do a better job!

If you decide to DIY it, I can help talk you through it. I do this stuff all the time but I'm too swamped with work and a PhD at the moment to help you hands on . Will be a fun project!

Where did you buy your actuator from?

Anyone else recommend places to buy from?

I talked to a guy at progressiveautomations.com, they have a wharehouse in Richmond, basically would be able to show me how to wire everything together, but after speaking with him and reading some of your threads it seems a lot easier.....

Thanks everybody.

I got it from progressive...it was not hard at all. Not super quiet though. I only use it about once per week so it doesn't really matter to me right now.
