Wiring Actuators for Suicide Door Locks

Anybody have a diagram of how to wire these in either on the ignition switch to lock when in run or into a lock/unlock switch? I have two wire actuators.

I know I need to use a couple relays, but the diagrams I have found are showing for a system running off of an alarm system or the car has existing doors locks.

suicide door lock switch

I've installed these door locks in the doors, same as everyone else. I will be using an electrical signal from a momentary on switch to close (lock) the pins only, and a mechanical linkage to open them. But a person could use a reversing polarity switch to lock/unlock. (a power up down window switch would work).

door lock switch wiring

check this door lock switch wiring, this will lock/unlock the actuators. Use a momentary on (spring loaded to centre) DTDP toggle switch or a power window switch. (the circuit is wired exactly the same as one for a power window) You might want to install a relay between the battery and the switch.

Photos of saftey lock

I am trying to figure out how to mount the safety locks. Anybody have pictures of how they mounted them. Would be a big help as they can't be mounted to the door shell as it is not a flat vertical place on the front edge of the door. I am thinking they have to be attached to the bottom of the door support arm.
Any help would be appreciated.
