Not exactly, Chris. The factory module *is* weak, but only when throwing current-heavy solenoids. For less than $100, I put in Toby's door lock actuator kit. I can't tell a difference from the solenoids in the way the system works, and I've been using the stock lock module with them. I drive the car everyday and lock it everywhere I go. It works perfectly. I installed them just after Pigeon Forge, and I've put about 9,000 miles on the car since. I should note though, that if your stock module is already damaged, you'll need to do as Chris suggests (buy Lockzilla, repair the old module, buy a NOS module, etc.). Mine was fine as I unhooked it when I bought the car.
