Hi guys, i have a 1996 240sx with manual door lock with no electronic door lock switch.
I wonder if i buy a alarm system like viper 5900, it have a lock and unlock bottons. if i install that, and press unlock botton, it won't open the door right? since it's manual.

Any idea how i can convert it into the automatic door lock switches?

I want you to go out to your car and think that one through.

Then, I want you to come back to your computer, search for "door lock conversions", and READ on www.zilvia.net .

If you still can't figure it out after that, I want you to sell your car and get a Corolla. They never break down.

P.S. - If you don't want to do that, then tell us and we'll baby-step you to complete automotive knowledge.

Wow, that's worse than the guy who asked if he plugged a fuse in to the empty slot in the fusebox marked 'ABS', would it give antilock brakes?
