Universal remote door locks

In my old age, I'm realizing how convenient remote door locks are these days even on a 2 door. I'm thinking about adding remote door locks to my resto mod 72 Olds while my car is hibernating this winter.
I see the universal kits from around $30 on ebay. Anyone bought one of these kits? Are they any good?
I also see a feature where the drivers door actuator has a sensor that locks the other doors when it's manually pushed down. I like that no extra switches need to be added.

I have a set of the $22 power locks on my 72 cutlass from amazon. They work great, remote works about 300ft away, left lock button controls right door, so no new holes in your car. Only thing that sucks is they come with a 3 button remote, but only 2 outputs for up and down. I was hoping for remote trunk release as well. The control box is hidden behind the left kick panel, I added some wire loom to and from the doors. The relays are awful small for the amount of current pulled by the actuators, but if they die, for $22 you can have a whole new set.
