Default Auto Locks?

Right now in my 98 hatch, my locks are manual and i was wondering if there were any kids available to convert them to automatic.

I purchased a kit from Summit racing by a brand called Autoloc.. paid around $70 for it.. I got the 2 door Autoloc CK2000 kit that transforms it to auto locks with keyless entry. It was an extreme pain in the *** for me to install because I have cable driven locks and the kit was made for rod driven locks.. But I finally got it together, the kit works great, but my cob-job on the actuator isn't that great.

they are pains when your in a hurry... not to mention you CONSTANTLY SCRATCH UP YOUR car with fiddling with the key trying to get it in the hole

you can use some lock actuators and with alittle time im sure you can get them to work!

i put them on my old @ss 86crx.
the actuators are REALY CHEAP on ebay and i got mine with a alarm/keyless entry system. worked great for the time i had the car!

but mine did have a rod type lock which was a simple enough job.
