I am not a professional in any area covered in these videos, just an average guy trying to save money by doing things on my own. Obviously I only post the videos if I was successful, and so I hope I can help you out. I made these videos mainly because I couldn’t find one for my specific project on YouTube. Ask any questions you have in the comments, but just know I don’t really know anything & just figured it out along the way. If you know anything about the project in this video or have experience yourself, please by all means comment and tell me what I should have known or done differently! Can my other mishaps help you out? BLIND SQUIRREL DIY:    • Blind Squirrel D.I.Y.   keywords: replacement, door lock, actuator, honda pilot
