I heard that if you dead lock the solex locks (when locking your car you can either lock it, or dead lock it, which means it can't be opened from the inside), and use central locking it can burn out the central locking mechanism. |

well you got the first turn of the lock that locks the door, you can hear the door 'lock' into place. then you should be able to turn it once more the same way to the second mark on the lock. You wont hear anything, but it dead locks it. You can then only open the door using a key, which is good because no one can just smash the window and open the door. |

You can get solex without deadlocks tho. I dont think the ones with normal keys (not the round weird key) have dead locks. And gene, how are you having solex locks, aren't you welding over your door locks? |
