If you have a car with central locking already, but only from a key, what do you need to fit to be able to do it from a remote/fob?

 

No one?

 

you need an alarm that does it or theres a thing that car alarm shops do , i think its about 70quid and that lets you do it

 

when I did my XR2 I fitted a remote box to the kit for the central locking, it just splices in to the central locking loom, easy enough to do

 

You can buy remote central locking kits. Comes with everthing you need. However if you have dead locks there's a bit more wiring involved. But its all possible

 

Was looking on ebay and can't find what I'm after - just want an easy to install kit off the shelf... Hate locking doors using the key

 

I'm looking into this for my RS2000. Going to ford on friday to see how much it is for the bits to upgrade my standard alarm to a remote central locking one. I belive its just new keys, central locking 'brain' Reciever (in interior light) and possibly a loom.

 

Thats the thing. I ain't got an alarm on the car, nor do I plan on getting one (it's a POS boggo Orion ) but it'd be nice to have a reciever in there and a fob to activate the central locking.....

 

Even a lot of the cheapo alarms will do remote c/l. An alarm could be fitted for as little as Ł200

 

Fook that! It's a Ł300 POS Fook spending Ł200 on the bastid

Can I not get something for Ł29.99 online?

 

Seen the car mate. Just don't lock the fucker

 

Yes you can...

First one I picked out in a search...

I found that, but I don't need all the motors etc, as I already have central locking, so I don't need to convert.... I just want an interface (if you like) so it can be activated by a fob...

 

That's as cheap as you'll get. Just pick out what you need and bin the rest

 

buy 2 and you can do mine aswell

i used to have it,put disconnected the alarm as it used to drain the batt
