Central locking
Hi
Has anybody fitted central locking to a 140/160? I am thinking of using a 240 lock set and if anybody has done this, your experience would be useful. Thanks |

The 240 actuator in the driver's door cannot be used as it goes round the lock which has a larger barrel than the 164. All the other parts can be utilised and the driver's door could have either a modded rear o/s door mechanism or one of a lhd model fitted. A remote locking sytem (keyless entry) could then be used.

I fitted one of these to my 164 (that I sold and wished i never had) I also added an alarm so i could lock and unlock the car using a remote.
Easy to fit although there were a lot of wires to hide under the carpet http://www.maplin.co.uk/module.aspx?...12303&doy=19m3 |
