Which is not an addable option on most cars that don't have one.


I guess it is not important to me. I don't know if any of my last three
cars had one. Rare that I'd lock the doors anyway, but my remote starter does.

Locked car doors make amateur thieves damage you car and do nothing to stop a pro.


I tried my passenger door lock with a key a few weeks ago. I can barely get
the key in, never mind turn it. Power remote locks and/or the driver's door
key hole is all I've ever needed. Of course, I should fix it just in case
both of the other 2 methods go bad at the same time.

BTW...No remote starter that I've ever had, and I've had a number of them,
locked the doors. What's the point of that?
