    So I have a camper shell that I want to add power locks. Pop and lock has something for camper shells with a center handle. My camper shell has 2 handles on each corner of the rear door. Does anyone have a way to make the locks automatic? Or install a front handle

    I dont think you can do it with the dual handle, I have the ARE ZSeries with the palm lock, it has the auto lock built in, added the pop and lock to the tailgate, ran them along the P/S frame, up thr grommet hole and into the P/S kick panel as per Pop and Lock instructions.

    No idea, call the company that makes the shell and see if they have any upgrades and see if they have any compatible upgrades or hardware

    Would you be willing to share pictures of yours and describe the action? Does it just unlock the handle, or does the mech move the latches? I’m looking for auto lock options for my ARE CX, which has the center handle.
