	The remote locks, according to the dealership would not be 
availible until mid-'95.  Of course they also said that I wouldn't be able
to get a '95 Miata until late Jan early Feb.  It is very easy to add
a solenoid to accuate your locks.  I was going to do this when I added my
alarm, but decided against it.  I mean how difficult is it to reach accross
and flip the lever?  Besides, being the southern gentleman I prefer to unlock
the door for my girlfriend and then open it.  (No flames from liberal 
women please!)  Also if you have an inferior alarm system (read: not a 
Clifford) if you have the electric locks connected to your alarm a thief
can then disarm AND unlock your doors with the flip of a switch.  If you
have a Clifford Concept series alarm you don't have to worry because they
are not susceptible to being disarmed by code grabbers, scanners, or high
wattage radios.  Oh yeah the installer quoted I think $60 to put in the
solenoids.
