Has anyone successfully wired in an electric vacuum pump (a la 126/201/124) with the specific intent to install remote locks? [in 123] No, you just need to add one regular motorized actuator to the existing vacuum system and all will be well. Cheaper than converting, and _much_ easier. --

Channel clicking? Couch potato? -- when you are on this list, you don't have time to click channels! Also, a search of eBay turned up zero results for Audiovox AA-925, so where would I get one? Leave the PC screen? On 7/7/06, Zeitgeist [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I simply can't believe all

Do you have kids? Ever have to hold onto grocery bags and kids at the same time, while simultaneously fumbling for the correct key to open a door? It's typically a much more leisurely struggle to fumble for the correct ignition key, once you're already sitting down and the kids are safely

Just a quick note of thanks to Mr Cathey and Mr Stanley for their unwitting help yesterday as I installed remote keyless entry into my wagon. Jim's SDL advice and Wray's forwarded email (from years ago) about an install in a '92 300E were instrumental--read, absolutely necessary--to my eventual
