I agree with Robert.  Install the contacts at the pre-wire stage.  Ask
the contractor what he's going to be using to insulate.  Carry a "bat"
of insulation in your van and stuff the door frame yourself afterwards.
  That way no "stinkin' insulator" is going to "snip" your wires while
he's stuffin' the shit in.  If they want "foam", grab a can at Home
Depot and fill it in yourself.  Now all you have to worry about is some
idiot drywaller who decides the best place for a dry-wall screw is right
through your wire.  :-(
