You can either buy a solenoid that has a center-off position, or you can use two of the kit valves in tandem. What you do is connect the exhausts from a double solenoid to the single solenoid. Then you use the double solenoid to choose which direction to go, and then use the single solenoid to control the position. If that doesn't make sense, I can sketch it up in Paint.
