Front Runner gullwing windows - Central locking?

I've just installed a pair of Front Runner Gullwing windows, really happy with the result. I would love to have them lock/unlock with the central locking. Is there such a thing as electronic lock cylinders?

If the original lock cylinders can be replaced with an electronic version they could just be wired in to the central locking. I wouldn't need a key.
If that's not an option, how else would you go about it? The latch mechanism is probably unique to the windows I imagine. I can't see a lock/unlock on the inside so I don't think you can just add an actuator to the existing lock.

Anyone else had a dabble at this?

I don’t know the answer for gull wings but this video might offer a workable solution

That might be an idea, nice one!

I will have to have a look to see if I could mount the actuators under the window and lock onto the lock part of the window.
