I agree totally with Ben on this one. The vacuum system is WAY to 
complicated to make it a worthwhile swap/upgrade. They are annoyingly slow 
too. And good luck hunting down the vacuum leak if they ever fail.

Go with electric servo's. You just install them like the factory ones. The 
hardest part is bending the connecting rod just right to make everything 
line up. Tip: after you do the first one, use it as a template to bend the 
second one identically. Then you just pull the wiring to however you want 
it. Many alarms offer keyless entry. For the trunk, you can wire up a popper 
for that one too.

I've put in keyless entry alarms with power hatch pops in both of my cars, 
and would be happy to answer any questions.
