Platform: 01 Ford Ranger Edge, manual locks and windows.

What I'm wanting to do: Install power locks.

I have ordered:
-two relays
-two relay plugs/sockets
-two two-wire actuators

I plan on using this wiring diagram:

What do I hook up to the switch? What type of switch? A single post double throw? Just need help getting the switch wired up and I'll have this installed tomorrow.

Following that schematic, a SPDT momentary contact will work.

Ground the common terminal. (usually the center one.)
Green to the unlock terminal
Blue to the lock terminal.
