i was wondering if anyone has gotten an install of power locks from best buy or future shop, and if so, how well they work.
i have a 96 civic 3 door and wanted to get the keyless entry installed, but i was wondering how well they would work, especially in winter and cold conditions.
any thoughts?

 

I had mine done by visions; the tech said they were really easy to install and they worked well because he was able to install them very close to the lock mechanism instead of way out near the end of one of the lock rods. Just by my own subjective observations when locking the car, they seem to make a nice solid "thunk" when the locks engage as well, just like a factory system. And if all else fails, I have a lifetime guarantee on the install, so if anything ever goes wrong, its not my problem.

 

FWIW Best Buy and Circuit City also have lifetime waratnes on thier installations. That says nothing about the quality of the product. If they install a crappy product, then that waranty is pretty much worthless.
