Any ideas for an electronic lock on tonneaus

Has anyone got any suggestions or ides's on connecting an electronic lock to a factory lockable tonneaus cover on a BA XR6 ute. I just picked my ute up last week and am toying with the idea on fitting something an am curious if anyone done it before...

i got a few ideas, and spent a lot of time talking about it with mates.. just have never got around to getting/making the parts i need. so if i ever get around to doing it, i will let you know.

central locking motors under the standard lock brackets is what im toying with just trying to figure out how to mount the buggers to my hard lid

I was thinking of putting the latches on a slide, and then operating them with a solenoid. that way it is easy to mount, you can leave the locks on the hard cover standard, so they work as normal and you dont need to try and run wiring up the cover.
