Has anyone tried rigging an actuator for a locking gas lid?

    Basics so far, led lights, plug and play dashcam, console vault, bed mat.
    I have an old actuator from a POP & LOCK kit I had on my previous truck. Has anyone built a push button release for the gas lid? Maybe this actuator is overkill...

    I looked into using a cable release/latch
    Haven’t pursued it much
