   Central locking should do it on your keyfob. just do a search and you'll get an answer also look at my thread that i started about plugging the holes up for a bit more help on finishing it.

   i was thinking of wiring a button up on the dash to lock the doors, shouldnt be too difficult, but i think it would mean running a few wires to each motor

    standard key fob will only activate the doors when driving not the alarm/immobiliser as long as the car has already been started.

    yeah as long as your engine is started, it means you can just lock the doors without arming the alarm as scott said
