Solenoid operated reverse lockout ?

[76orangewagon]

I am going to try and solenoid operate the reverse lockout lever on my TCI Outlaw shifter. Has anyone done this before ? I am looking at using a 60lb door popper unit and pull the modified arm forward with a button mounted the shifter lever. I have ordered a matching button to add to the front by the trigger finger, any input and advice would be highly appreciated. I plan on keeping the shifter under a vintage style 4 speed boot and having a reverse lever sticking up through the boot ruins the look and inhibits the movement of the rubber boot
