They are usually opened via either a button underneatht the wing mirrors or by an alarm fob
The biggest cost is the smoothing of the doors!
The solenoids and buttons will cost £35-40 and arent that hard to fit so can do it yourself!
id recommend it only if you really think it will imrove the look of your car, its not practical and can potentially lock you out of your car but these are bad cases!
the solenoid will act as the door handle!
A door handle has a rod on it that pushes down a latch and that pops the door latch and then you are free to open the door!
A solenoid will be attached to the same place as the door handle rod was and so when you activate the solenoid(pusing a buton) it will pull the solenoid back and will pop the latch!
finally yes it can get integral in an alarm but its bst to have a physical way on the car of opening the car like a button under the mirror as SOME MOT stations will fail you on it!
