Good Evening

I hope you are all well.? I'm missing my car and keep buying things to put on her when I get her back, Crystal lights, +80 H4's, Toad Alarm.. and I was thinking I would like to fit central locking too..

Have any of you fitted central locking you your cars?

Would a kit like this work.?

I want to connect to the alarm for key less entry. Saves the key lol..

One of the PHers last year (James280779) told me he had put central locking on his car. I think he sold it to 'Magpies' on here. He may be able to advise you if the central locking is any good.

IMHO a total waste of money and just something else to go wrong.Most of the difficult faults are down to the dodgy electrics adding more wont help.Anyway you still need that key for the ignition biggrin

Thanks for the replies.. not worried about the electrical side of things at all to be honest.. I will need the key this is true but not to start the car.. for that I have one of these in mind:

Start

is it really worth adding central locking to a car that doesn't have a roof?
