Thanks for your replies, 78F350 and Smallblock454. Very helpful. Thanks for the extra research, picture, and info, 78F350.
It turns out I have the M531, so no remote control standard from the factory.
But from what you two say together, I can't tell how much trouble it would be to make the locks work remotely. Smallblock454, when you say "the remote control was an optional modul and an option" does that mean it can be added to the M531 without swapping out the M531 for the M535? 78F350, you make it sound like I would have to swap out the whole unit. I don't know how much trouble that is, and for all the threads about people with alarm problems, I'm reluctant to swap out the whole module. Would be great if it was just an add-on, but it doesn't sound like it is.
Seems funny that I have power locks that can only be activated from the dash button and nowhere else. Hard to imagine a situation where you're in an open convertible and locking the doors makes any kind of difference. It supports the function where you can unlock both doors with one key, but since you're 99% of the way to the goal line, just make it work remotely! I was surprised to find out that Porsche made cars then without the remote locking option at all. But then, this is the barebones model, and I don't even have cruise control. I myself wouldn't use the feature much but would someday like to hand the car down to somebody in way better shape than how I took it on, as it was meant to be.
78F350, thanks for the clue on the 696 option- updated in my notes..
