   I have a 2001 Citroen Saxo Forte (Y reg) 2/3 door,a nd it has an immoboliser but not an alarm or central locking.
   
   I've found parts for £42.00 that can be made to make the car have central locking. can they be fitted to the saxo, and then can it be used as a basic central locking?

   you can get bits and bobs from ebay for central locking, and boot popping. just look carefully to make sure it will fit. - why not ask your local garage about it?

   If you dont have an alarm either have you considered getting an alarm that has fitting of central locking as an option with it?
