Remote Locks

[Watkins Family <watbmv@xxxx>]

Lets also remember that there are alot of owners who don't have the 
technical skill to take an off the shelf remote kit and install it. The 
stock DMC lock controller basically sucks. It burned out my solenoids 
and cost me quite a bit to replace, this is why I first bought the 
Lockzilla Controller. Bottom line folks, at this point in my over 10 
years of DMC ownership I would not trust my cars electronics to anyone 
other than those that are making products for the DeLorean ONLY. 

While there are competing products out there made by different DMC 
Vendors, the Zilla line is my preference. I find them to be well 
built, 100% backed by Bob and I know that my supporting this product 
will help develop other items. Why support PEP-BOYS? or AUTOZONE? Are 
they making items designed just for a Delorean.....no. If you can buy 
the correct off the shelf unit and install it....that's great. If you 
saved a few bucks, that's great too. But, if you are a novice in the 
field of electronics I suggest buying the Zilla line from my own 
personal experience. Don't buy an off the shelf unit and try to adapt 
it to "make it work"....why bother? It took me only a few minutes to 
install my remote unit. Why subject yourself to cutting and splicing? 
God forbid if you mess up and try to call the manufacturer for 
support......"what kind of car do you have?"....."A 
DeLorean"....."DeLorean?.....hmmmm. I don't have any information on that 
car" (sound familiar?)

I know I sound like a cheerleader for Zilla but I guess when you find 
something that works so well with SO little effort it makes a true 
convert of you. There are lots of you who are very skilled and 
capable of doing things most of us would never dream of. So, please 
remember that when you suggest off the shelf products that involve more 
than just "plug and play" that it may be easy for you install but will 
be Greek to most others. Zilla take out any question, any quess work, 
and to me that means less stress and worry that what Ive just done to my 
car will work.
