I fitted a universal central locking kit, it was easy.

Nas,
Any recommendations on a kit?

Something like this?

Assume you got the boot functioning?

Thanks

I don't have any door locks on the doors so I had to fit the central locking, the kit is very similar if not the same as yours but mine came with a fob, bought it off ebay. I left the boot as it is, that wasn't so simple to incorporate the central locking so I left it manual as I hardly ever use the boot.
