   Hi guys as some of you know my car was recently broken into... well yesterday i had an alarm fitted but the guys at the alarm fitting centre said that the central locking solenoid was buggered due to the break in, now when i activate the alarm the doors lock then unlock leaving my car open but alarmed lol, now iirc sparco-tom or one of the other SaxP users can get part numbers and prices right?? well if anyone could get me a price and a rough idea on how to fit it i would be most grateful cheers

   I got one from a scrap yard for £4. Its kind of awkward to see but on mine I just had to pull the wiring plug out, pop the bar out of the solenoid and twist the solenoid to release it.
