Remote Central Locking

[Ian_s]

Can anybody tell me how much of a job it is to fit remote central locking to a 3rd Gen RX-7.  Im currently having problems with GAP security who as well as making a really crap job of installing the alarm, are telling me its going to cost me hundreds extra to install the remote central locking.  This is due to them having to replace the whole system or something despite the fact that remote central locking is supposed to be part of what I payed for in the first place?

what\'s remote senrtal locking?:confused:

it should be very easy ... even basic alarms come with this capacity. The most complex thing they would need to do is fit a universal motor in the drivers door.

They said something like that to me at first before they saw the car, said it might need a motor like mike says. But they only quoted about £40-50 extra (didn\'t need one though) not hundreds.

remote central locking is when you lock and unlock the car via a remote.

Apparently it is difficult to fit because the locking mechanism on the 3rd gen uses wires rather than rods to lock and unlock.  They also reckon that the locking mechanism on imports is different to the uk models, can anyone shed any light on this?

I had a Clifford alarm fitted last year and they charged 50 squid for a motor in the drivers door. I think the passenger door had one in already as it unlocked with the drivers. Well mine did anyway.......
As it happened, he forgot to bill me for the extra, smart!:D
