Remote central locking.
« on: September 25, 2008, 08:45:38 AM »
here is a few pics of my instalation..


this is cargo door..


inside passenger side door..


here is the door lockers.. i made up brackets off them to mount onto the end of the door..


got rid of the knobs to increase security..


wiring is not actually that bad it all just clips together except for power, ground and either plug in indicatiors or in my case i am hooking it up to the horn.. just in case i loose the beddy in a car park.. then i can hear it lol..

not sure exactly what im going to do on the barn doors yet.. maybe a sliding bar or something.. will work that later..

sorry that second pic doesnt make much sense cause the camera was on an angle.. ive rotated the pic to make it more logical.. its now the right way up.. if you see where the motor connects to the lever upthe top i drilled it out a bit so that it fits over it.. works like a treat.

Ben,

That looks like it's going in without too much hassle... I may have to follow suit calzone.

looks good Benn  ;D
where'd u get the kit and how much?
most of the one's look like they would break easy, or not be able to handle pushing the barrels.
what happens if you have a flat and your outside of the car?
Have a listen to some of my music:

just a warning about central locking on bedfords, if the unit is on a hair trigger it can be set off just by leaning on the door handle.

I don't want to put to much info on here, but try set them up so they operate at the end of the key travel, not at the beginning
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

Hey Ben,

Now all you need to do is install remote door poppers and then you can take the outside handles off completely. Depending on the outputs from your Central Locking control unit you could also use that as the input for the poppers so that you dont need 2 remotes.  ;D

Cheers, Nathan.
