Rod F Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Has anyone fitted central locking to their Z? I tried the other week but couldn't find a spot to attach the actuator. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeddophile Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Well, I intended to... just had a look at one of my doors, the only possible place I can see is between the window track and rear of the door - directly below the actual locking assembly.... Looks like a pain to set up though - perhaps pay someone else to do it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toecutter Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I have. I made a tin bracket for the actuator. It was a bit tight but just took a little patience. Once installed I got the wiring connected to an alarm I later installed and I use this alarm remote to lock and unlock the car. Works great, when the alarm is armed the car locks and vice versa.

Natez Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 if your looking for a simple alarm system with the central locking best bet is to go on Ebay and buy something off there you like, unless you want a brand name... as all the $3-400 stuff i find in jb-hifi etc etc, is all made in the same factory in china, and will cost you 150 or 200 on ebay... i did this and bought the actuator from JB-HiFI, as thats the heavy duty part you need, saved a few hundred dollars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod F Posted September 21, 2005 Author Share Posted September 21, 2005 I also have an alarm, which i've already installed and connected to the central locking module, it's just finding a place for the actuator. Sulio, you wouldn't happen to have a photo of your install would you??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggels240z Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Hi got it installed on my car as well , i mounted mine almost directly behind the rear bolt of the arm rest , not real easy to line up for drilling of the wholes but work great . cheers Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
