how much are new door lock actuators 91 740? 700

Hi All
Happy new year!

I'm still working on my central locking problem.
We know the following.

1. the switch is good.
2. The solenoid and wiring to the pax door, the trunk and the rr door are good!
3. the relay pulses as advertised!
4. every lock actuator I have removed has been bad! (Very hard to believe, but true!) (put in another working one and the lock locks and unlocks?)

I got away with using the earlier L shaped VDO assembly on the trunk. I rigged up 1 of the L shaped VDO units on the front Pax door. Works like a champ with only slight geometry changes!

GUESS WHAT! Dope slaps on me! you can't run the window down @#$%&*!!
Unintended consequences!

I called a salvage yard about an hour away thest is slammed with Volvos. 3 hours later they still can't tell me if the have the units or not. These are the rectangular VDO units (with no circuit breaker!)

So I'm wanting to price out new ones,

Anybody know the approx cost? anybody got a good "business like" salvage yard that will ship and guarantee against DOA?

Regards

Woody

    I used a aftermarket actuator in my driver side door when I added the alarm system to the 740. The actuator cost me $20cdn, comes with C-crimp and rod. The only mod I did to have the actuator install is having to trim back the plastic splash shield where the VDO sits.
