Why not fit a central locking kit. Most come with 4 actuators and a remote key fob . 2 for the doors and with one on the boot and you have a spare.

Oh, I disagree, it`s so old tech in a couple of years the scrotes won`t even know how to get in with a key: if there isn`t a scanner off ebay they won`t know where to start!

Ah ha! Retro security. A cunning plan.
So if your Capri disappears you need to look for a 50+ boy racer :)
