JustGav Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 The car already has central locking... You will probably need to get the door lock and unlock lines from the alarm (if it supports it) wired into the central locking control unit.

NeoFuture Posted October 5, 2007 Author Share Posted October 5, 2007 yeah my old one had it, i spose ill need to look through the parts manual for where things are :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Central locking control unit is behind the passenger airvent on the dash I believe, and the control wires run along the door edge, so you could probably tap into them there.. If you have a look through the manuals, I'm sure you will find the colour code (Can't remember them off the top of my head) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However does the car currently have an alarm? if so why is that function not connected/enabled. There are plenty of options as most alarm systems include central locking drivers. This would do the job -> http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-REMOTE-CAR-ALARM-BOOT-RELEASE-REMOTE-CENTRAL-LOCKING_W0QQitemZ370181869023QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item370181869023&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1683|66%3A2|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A1318 but it is a little too taiwanesey for my liking.... If you aren't comfortable with wiring in something like this (and nothing with that, it is a challenge) then I would suggest going to a reputable car place and just getting a cheapy but supported unit installed. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-GSM-CAR-ALARM-SYSTEM-WITH-REMOTE-START-AND-VOICE_W0QQitemZ220379856334QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item220379856334&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1683|66%3A2|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A1318 BUT this a complicated bit of kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
