No there doesnt have to be a button.

But many people will tell you there does. Car fully road legal and passes MOT provided someone can get into car manually from outside -this includes putting a hand in and using the internal handle. (therefore at MOT time just put the car in with windows down)

Had loads of trouble police & courts over this and know the above to be true!

I would say it's a good idea to have buttons on the outside, unless you like being trapped in a burning car dying.

i dont have buttons on outside only on key fob, passes MOT fine, as said is a cunt when car is at garage etc as no1 can eva work them. going to see if i can get them improved posibily buttons outside in the new year.

oh and if you are trapped inside a burning car there is a high chance the wires would be fucked so wouldnt work anyway.
