Anyone in the SoCal area familiar with replacing the door lock actuator motors in the 03 coupes? Both my passenger side and driver side went out and I would rather not take it to the dealer since my warranty is over. Seems like a simple DIY but I'm not familiar with this type of install at all. I'm willing to pay someone to do the replacement for me. Or if can anyone refer me to a shop that can do the replacement at a reasonable price, that works too. I'll have the new door lock actuator motors with me. Let me know if anyone can help!

Haha this would be nice, being that my driver side has gone out. 2 months after warranty went out too. what a crock.

I'm in too! heh, my passenger has been on and off for the last 2 months or so, I finally got around to buying one for $130 from the dealership. Havent installed it yet though, I'll let the alarm guys do it. But I would definitely like to know if a simple fix exists for it since I think it's gonna happen again very soon to my driver side.

Should be a simple bolt on, call me 626-636-6678 if you want me to do it TONIGHT (GF has class so have some free time lol)

Call me after 4pm =) I live in rowland heights

Ive read that the bolt on is simple but removal of the door panel and window is a bitch. Anyone up for the challenge?

i thought i was the only one lol..my drivers side door will not unlock..but sometime it will unlock/lock sometimes i have to put the key in to unlock my door..quite embarrassing...stealership quoted me $350 for part and install..no warranty is a biatch

If you wana do it give me a call after 4, I have all the tools from wrenches ratches weird extensions and adapters.. 90 degree joints etc..

should be pretty easy tho.

Is there a DIY or a set of instructions that shows how to disassemble the door to replace the actuator? Does anyone have one of those g35 dealer manuals?
