Added power locks and keyless entry

I used a crimestopper 845 system for the keyless entry. I used power lock actuators from the rear doors of a 1993 Nissan Maxima since I had a friend with a parts car that I could take them from. I had to bend and cut the rods to fit but it was pretty easy.
I made a bracket out of aluminum to hold the actuator in the door and then had to cut a small hole in the door metal to get the linkage through. I also modified the drivers side latch so that the door handle does not have to be held open to lock it (almost all Hondas have this feature) since I blew a fuse when I tried to use the power locks when the door was open and the handle wasn't up.

I have a red 1982 Honda Preludethat I am thinking of selling. It runs great, but the engine smokes when I first start it sometimes. The front suspension has been rebuilt in the last two years, and there are other new parts. The body is in good shape other than a dent in the left front fender and the hood where a branch fell on it and busted the vent. I have a new vent for that. It passed smog last year with zero emmissions, and it's really a great car. It's just getting hard to get parts for it and I am not into restoring it as a collector car, so I am thking about letting it go to someone that would care for it. It's a good car, and I'd hate to see it turned into junk, so I am curious as to how much I should ask for it. I can supply pictures if anyone is interested. Thanks. michael@enchantedcreek.com
