Want to add Keyless Entry/Alarm to 2009 manual Vibe

We just got a 2009 Vibe with manual locks. I'm trying to figure out what we need to do to convert this (4 doors plus trunk). I've seen these kits referenced here but not sure what needs to be purchased? I was thinking W02C-740T from this page but isn't something else needed for the trunk? http://www.a1electric.com/catalog/cat_key.htm

And/or how should we go about finding someone that can install this? This isn't the sort of thing we feel able to do ourselves, nor have a day to spend doing it. We talked to a guy at Best Buy yesterday and it sounded like it was going to be $600+ there. I'm not sure how to find other places that do this more regularly than BB sounded.

Look for car audio shops in your area.

It will probably be expensive no matter where you go, because you will need actuators in all 4 doors + the hatch. The parts themselves aren't really that expensive, it's the amount of labor involved.

I did not know there were vibes without power locks. Post pictures of the door panel. I am very interested.
