I don't know of anyone who has actually installed one. You may have to dig through the instructions and use the Google Translate app to get the gist of what they are telling you to do.
The big question is if it works on a 93-95 car - I don't know if it was designed for a later car since it is a newer dealer accessory. It could be designed for different wiring. Also, there isn't wiring going to the US driver's side door for the unlock signal to unlock the door latch - that would have to be added in. I don't know if that kit includes something to handle that or what.

It may tie in to the existing power door lock relay or something as well - I THINK that is behind the driver's B-pillar plastic.
It seems it would have to talk to the CPU in some way so it's an "authorized unlock" so the alarm doesn't go off.
Once you dig deeper into it I'd like to see what parts it comes with and how it hooks up, I'm curious myself!

Nice! Looking forward to the writeup!

This isn't the write up but it's a basic understanding of what the hardest part was and it's modifying the RHD passenger actuator "Driver side for American models" (Left of the photo) to perform like the LHD passenger actuator. (Right of the photo) As you can see, the difference are the metal contacts and the wires for the metal contacts. The job of the metal contacts are to communicate with the opposite actuator with whatever the "primary" actuator is doing.
I couldn't unbolt the top of the motor housing from the LHD passenger actuator and bolt on the RHD passenger actuator. The housing is different in the locations you see that are cut out. I simply used the pieces that were cut out and super glued them on the housing that I'm using (RHD passenger actuator) It's important that you do this step because the pieces of the housing that I glued on are used to hold the gear rods in place. (After I super glued them, I used JB weld)
#13
Unfortunately you need to sacrifice a LHD passenger actuator or if you buy the kit like I did, they provide you with a LHD passenger actuator (Technically it's the Driver side actuator for RHD but it's designed the exact same as the LHD passenger actuator, cables are just different lengths) The tools I used are a dremel. It's a lot of test fitting. I'll post more details when I have time this week.

Did you have to run additional wiring into the driver's door to run the actuator?

There is an adapter harness I had to plug in from the control unit to the OEM harness on the door that came with the kit. But didn't have to do anything like running wires into the door. It was plug and play. The only thing that I had to do was find a constant 12 volts in the driver's door to tap into for powering the control unit.

If one was to look for a RHD left actuator, what exactly does that part look like? I see a lot of the black assemblies with the lock, but I'm not sure if those come with all the required parts. I didn't pay enough attention to the locking system when I had the door panels off I guess.

I've seen prices all over the place, but typically it's on the spendy side - like $300-500 or so.
