The advantage of having a solenoid and a buton to get in (like on the mirrors) is if a relay or fuse dies on the remote locknig thing or the alarm. Tis also a good idea to link that up straight to the solenoid on the door bypassing anything like relays that can give up and die on u. If you want to get paronoid fit a door pop on all of them boot and 2 doors, run a wire to the terminals of the battery which u can jump from the outside of your car and your always gonna be able to get into the car without smashing any windows.
