Answer
Did you test the wires to see if they were negatives?

put toegther the pink/yellow and pink light green wires.
Then using a simple test light, ground the aligator clip
and touch the copper on the pink/yellow wire. If you
get the door to lock, these would be negative door locks.
No relays likely are needed. But make sure the
keyless you have has built in door lock relays to
do 5 wire and follow.

You should contact the people you bought it from for tech support
on this.
