Accountant tries to be electronically savy



This weekend I went to install the keyless entry unit.  I found the
power door lock actuator right next to the battery (Thanks q-list) and
here is my delimma:

The wires going into the actuator are as follows (wire number based on
numbers at wiring harness):
Wire #1 constant 12v
Wire #2 constant ground
Wire #3 12v when Passenger side front door is unlocked
	no v when Passenger side front door is locked
Wire #4 12v when Drivers side front door is unlocked
	no v when Drivers side front door is locked
Wire #5 No wire
Wire # 6 constant ground
Wire # 7 No wire.

The $64,000 question is: how do I use the keyless entry module to kill
the power to wires 3 & 4 when the lock "signal" is sent and restore
power when the unlock "signal" is sent?  I'm thinking relays (something
I know absolutely nothing about).  Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
