Right at the moment to deadlock my car i have to use my key, but its shit because ive got an alarm that will allow me to controll the central locking form it, but it wont dead lock it. When i lock the car from my alarm fob it wont deadlock the drivers side, but it seems to deadlock the passengers side automoatically  Does anyone know of a way that I can make my alarm deadlock both the drivers and passengers side?
Has anyone got any ideas, becuase im lazy and cant be arsed to keep diss arming the alarm with the fob, but them opening the car by key.

Rob, I've not found a system yet that will allow remote deadlocking. If you come across one let me know. I've got de locked handles waiting to go on but I want to activate the deadlocks remotely, not just the central locking.
(Not a hint of a kitchen in that one)

i think when u turn key that extra bit with thy key the barrel hits a micro switch which then deadlocks the rest of the car.. maybe u could fit a small solonoid which is activated by alarm, so flicks this microswitch in return deadlocking at the same time?? Confused.. I am .. just a thought though..

why would u want to turn this off, after seeing a mate tried to be hyjacked in front of my eyes i wanted this as a mojor point of getting a toad alarm. if they turn ignition on a door open then it doesnt lock.

It's so annoying for me. Trying to drop people off and seeing them fiddle with a locked door even though they didn't lock it, or picking people up on the fly and them not being able to open the doors.
I don't like it. I can see it's advantages but like I say not many girlies like it.

Pressing the button while the ignition's on does fuck all on my alarm.
Know what you mean though mav. Whenever i give my mates a lift i always get the "Ahhh, Rob's locking us in the car again!" comment 
Looking at one of the rods in the door i noticed that when i lock it off the alarm/by the key normally, it travels down and then back up (like how you turn the key Anticlockwise, then let go and it goes back to vertical. If I deadlock the car, the rod travels down, and stays down. Might have to go and have another check i think. If i can fit a solonoid to that rod, then im hoping it should do it
I'll keep you posted
