Fitting a central locking kit

[mark.r.cullen]

Just wondering if anyone had fitted such a thing. Our Arosa is very basic, and doesn't have central locking fitted at all. I'd quite like to get remote central locking (or even just manual RCL) fitted, and came across this kit:

Can't imagine it's overly difficult to fit?!

As mentioned in another thread, I fitted remote locking to a Mk 2 Cavalier years ago,just a cheap Moss alarm kit,wasn,t too hard as all the mounting holes for door solenoids were present ,just a case of routing wiring and lock bars.
Get the door panel off and have a good look inside for where the solenoids could be fitted.

If you look at the photo in your link,the L shape metal rods fix to solenoids which are fixed to the door,then you clamp the rods to the door pin rods,e.g solenoid up doors unlock,solenoid down doors lock.
Hope this explains it a bit.

I still wanna do this, but Im still scared incase I balls it up.


Right enough, might be a good idea to get a passengers side lock mechanism first...

I haven't even ordered the kit yet. I do intend on doing it at some point though, and when I do I will post some pictures and stuff
