btw, i would use a key switch rather than a normal flick switch, because it adds a little more security to thing - ie: if someone did find it, they couldnt just press it and get into your car etc you would need a key to activate the switch :) | |

quote: yea i was about to say this :lol: Just run a seperate circuit that checks the voltage of your battery and if its below a certain voltage, my Central locking works with about 1.5v in the battery (thanks to me leaving the lights on :lol: ), it switches over to a little 12v battery (maplins -HERE) and under the car you have a key switch (look in maplins) to activate the circuit :) So you still have a key system to get into your car :thumbs: | |

keep a battery in the boot that is for the sole purpose or popping the locks, have a switch hidden outside the car so if the battery under the bonnet goes flat you got a back up switch | |

when i had everything smoothed off my nova i ran two insulated wires to outside the car, so if the battery went flat, i could power the locks on an external battery or jumpr from another car. did help once which was a god send. | |

i am wondering this i have no door handles so if anything goes wrong with the doors i have a remote reciver on the smooth tail gate so i can get in the car but if the battery went flat this would be useless | |

quote: just given me an idea mate....could run and extension to the button that pops the boot onto the exterior of the car (with a waterproof switch) where in the event of it all going tits up, i can slip under the car and press the button. hmmm, but if theres not battery power, that might still not work! | |

I have heard of people having a mechanical means into the car that can be used in emergencies hidden away | |

Im thinking of putting some door handles on without the locks on it. The cars all alarmed with cl etc so that wont be a problem. |
