i bought the kit of ebay. it was for a 4 door car, but i just used 2 of the 4 lock kit bits. i will try find you the kit i bought.

what are door sensors and shock sensors ?

ps, as u can tell i dont know much about them lol

[JamesGodfrey1992]

Practically the same as this kit.

How easy was it ti fit ? Because for that price it seems like a bargain.

By the way im still a novice when it comes to minis, the only thing ive done so far is change the battery.

sorry im confusing myself, im on about shock sensors for an alarm!

Anyway, do the rods connect to your inside door lock, if so have you mounted the rods to push/pull horizontally,
Its just im unsure how to do this as a mini indoor lock is diffeernt to the usual pop up and down ones on, say an old 106 or corsa.

Sorry for all the questions!

I'm interested in fitting this too. My dad would probably argue this is spoiling the classic-ness of a Mini but this would be so convenient. Is Hawk a company i can rely on to provide a reliable product?

it may be spoiling the " classic-ness " but its also benefiting you from opening 2 doors in horrible weather conditions lol

yes i have mounted the rods that exact way. i will get more info of my dad and let you know more. But its a must purchase in my eyes

its relatively easy, all i needed to do was scrap the rods they give you and use stronger ones that my dad made and it was from there on ( plug and play )

[asmith88]

What did he make the rods from? im considering a central locking kit with alarm included too, but with a mini having no built in door opening sensors will this be easy or hard?

why not go one step further and get the solinoid door poppers (me thinks there awsome)

[danie garry]

i was thinking of fitting this kit.

has your mini a rover alarm or anything or would that affect the locking???
