| Post subject: | Central Locking/Keyless entry |
Has anyone bothered putting central locking/keyless entry on their mini? Reading the post about the handleless boot got me thinking... I've seen kits at JB hi-fi for around $40, doesn't sound too expensive, and the locks look small enough to fit in the door. Anyone attempted it? |

(EDIT: ^^^ what he said!) Use the Force..er... I mean the search button. 
"central AND locking" in Mini Chat has half a dozen threads. Sorry, I can't post a useable link from the results page 
From memory, Leyland = ok, roundie = no joy. Run that search and you'll have all the answers

Clubman: Fairly easy for somone who knows what they're doing. Rover: straight forward, but fiddly. Roundies: requires modifications to locks, and some custom parts and clever thinking, but still certainly do-able.

Yes
Done it recently to a clubbie,,, came up great, very happy with the result.. ONE SUGGESTION THOUGH,, when looking at keyless kits, remember to find kits that have a rotating code,, a lot don't have one,, and what it means is that joe blow can go back to the store and buy a "spare remote for the kit" and unlock your car,, (or anyone else who's used the same kit as you)... |

NG, the way to look at is is not "has it been done?", but rather "can it be done?", or "can I do something?" Most of the time the answer is Yes.
Central locking in your 850 doors? Who cares if it's been done before or not? Grab a pen and paper and make it happen!
