Electric central locking

Post by 6n2stan »

This may seem an odd question. Has anyone retro fitted electric central locking either to a 6n2 that didn't have CL in the first place or to replace the pneumatic system? The reason I ask is my boot, it will be electrically opened so I need electrical locking as apposed the pneumatic/mechanical system it has now.

Cheers

Yes, the standard GTI setup atm.

So was that an aftermarket kit or did you utilise another VAG system?

Ah, cheers Alex, I think my mate has this setup on his 6KV polo. I'll look into slaving this into my boot. I'm in the process of grafting in a Golf 5/6 boot handle :shock:
