Power locks on an RS?

I love the idea of the RS because I hate the clothsline wing on the other models. I don't really need power windows, but I would love to add power locks with an aftermarket alarm.

Question: has anyone added power locks (and/or alarm) to their RS? Please be as specific as you can regarding manufacturers/models/options etc.

Search, i think someone has done it. i know how u feel about the wing. i thought the evo looked hot with a wing, it doesn't appeal to me anymore now that every honda owner and his mom is driving around with a wing.

didn't a selct amount of RS' come with a few options, because mistubishi thought it may have been a little too bare bones for some people?

I thought i read that a few came with power windows as an option n the RS. power locks too i thought as another option?

hmm... if im wrong tho, sorry.

you will have an easier time with a keyless entry kit made for cable door latches. I bought mines from a1electric.com as they seemed to be the only one that carry such kits. i think you can rig any keyless entry kits to work, but i wanted to be sure i have all the neccessary clips and doodads.

you will need to drill few holes on the door frames to mount the actuators, cut the sheath off the latch cables(must be careful!), wire up the alarm brain, and test everything. rears doors will need more drilling on the B pillars, i only did the fronts.(just don't wanna use my key to unlock)
