i was wondering if you could upgrade the lock system on the doors and keep the same door.

if you could also post a link to info or a link to a video on how to change to lock

 

What kind of upgrade are you thinking? I know there are some keyless entry systems out there from black dragon for about $90

 

yes...solex door locks. I have it in the FB and RX-3s.

 

Any site for them? Can't find anything.

I saw those a long time ago and have been wanting to get a set.

Wacky-- whats the part number for the set you use? How well do they fit?

 

well im just looking for some good anti-theft

i dont want people taken my car

 

+1 i need these in my life, as well as my car, seeing that you can open my door with any key or any thing for that matter, i opened it with my zipper the other day!!!!!

 

Dipstick works well, also. Locked myself out once, but luckily, the hood was popped.

 

hahaha sounds like you may need these locks too! my boss looked at me funny once when i asked him for his car key cause mine were on the other side of the gym, and i just wanted to grab my ipod.... haha he was amazed when they were worked like a charm! i hardly ever lock my keys in the car, but i get kinda lazy knowing i can use just about anything that will fit in the keyhole.. its good thing my ignition isnt as bad!!!

 

just slap it on just like a regular door lock. I didnt use the trunk lock due to issues with the RX-7/3 design. I will take pix of my extra set tonight

 

well ok for any one interested in these... i just got a set on ebay for $60 with free shipping.... cant wait to put them on!!!

 

move! around here nobody cares about an old mazda, i can leave it unlocked with the keys in the ignition...

 

^ haha the other night, I accidently left the keys in the ignition. With both windows down. Overnight. oops.

 

old style solex in one of my RX-3s


grandfather clock or barrel style key



for the trunk..i didnt use as it requires some tweaking. im lazy



new style solex

 

Oooh... I like those new ones.

My only complaint is that it would mean you have two keys for the car... and that's one thing that pisses me off about my blazer is that I need one key to open everything in the car and another one to turn the ignition.

 

I need a set of those. My door key broke, so I can't lock my car. I wish anything opened mine. Luckaly no ones stolen anything. I leave my keys in my ignition all the time. I left them in about 2 weeks ago in front of the county jail.

 

just got mine!!!! waiting till i finish painting her to install them..

 

Does Solex by any chance make those new style Solex for Ignitions?

 

Replacing the locks doesn't solve the problem of how easy it is to pop the lock button from the outside. Rotary Engineering used to sell a plate that covered up the spot where any screw driover that was inserted could unlock the door.

I'd never heard of these locks but they are sharp, me likey.

 

I have a set of uninstalled Rotary Engineering plates you're speaking of. Once I find them I'll post some pictures

 

Eric, I knew you had been into rotarys for a while, now you're dating yourself. I'd never heard of them until I saw them in an old RE cataloge.

 

i was planing on trying to weld a peice of sheet metal or something to prevent that as well... damn easily breakinable cars...
