its easily doable! i used ford boot release hinges as soon as they get live they smap open, perfect for oppening the door! also you can put the switch in the Rear door glass plastic, so its actually quicker to get in the car.

remeber your need an aftermarket alarm tho, otherwise anyone will be able to get in!! :thumleft:
