*these parts are hard to get, especially in small quantities*

Step 1:
I took the switch signal from radio/HVAC control or Body Control Module (X2 L-Blue connector). you can attach the t-tap to this wires. I prefer to solder the wires I would not do this if it was not permanent modification.
door lock switch lock signal Pink/Black wire
door lock switch unlock signal Orange/Black wire




Step 2:
make the connector. this is the switch diagram


Step 3:
must to pass the lock signal wire through the door connector. this thread can help http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=155660
here we use the terminals for this connector
if you want to use this mode or can pass the wire around of rubber boot

body harness


door harness

on the door harness I changed the wire color. Please don't do that because it can be confusing

Step 4:
as had to pass two wires through the driver door connector. but only has one pin available, *I used the ABL wire (purple) for unlock signal and connect the LED (ABL) to the circuit LED backlight dimming (yellow)


ABL with my wiring


these are the steps that I took

I'd have to find a crashed 2012-13 convertible! No way I'd pay dealer price for these door panels.

Just another example of what Chevy should have done in the first place (put the power door lock switches on the armrests). My Jeep Wrangler has power window switches on the center console and power door lock switches on the doors. Whenever I switch vehicles, it takes a few tries to get reoriented!

I bought a pair of used panels just change the switch bezel and sold it again

Thank you

I bought some door panels months ago for the door inserts and put the door panels back in the box and left them alone till now. I was working on the RS lights today and decided to pull the door panels back out and look what I found. These must have been off of a 2013. So now I can do this mod and wait to do the Mylink upgrade. Yah
