Default electric door locks

I bought a C4 with a switch on each door panel that electronically locks the doors.

Does anyone know if I can convert the switch to a key less entry?

Not sure I understand your question. You can buy an aftermarket 2 channel keyless entry kit. It taps into the relays and allows keyless entry. You can hook up the other chanel to pop the rear hatch or to a remote starter.

What year is it? You can do anything you want with keyless if you get creative enough. I can use mine to turn the stereo on and off when the car's off.

I have my third channel hooked to a power window module. It puts up the windows with a press of a button. I had a "map" type sensor hooked up to it also. It "smelled" rain and put the windows up on it's own.

Where did you purchase the power window module? I'm very interested...

It's one push up... one push down right, with the same channel? This would be good to wire to a switch in the car also. Obviously the factory switches couldn't be used.

Unfortunately, it only puts the windows up. The company I used to install alot of was Harris electronics. Quality stuff with a lifetime warrantee. The went belly up and are no longer around. This is confusing because their stuff was the best I could find. I have been out of the electronics loop for a while, I do not know what is out there now(10 years later)
