Not being able to lock ANY door without the key is asinine design.
This is in part why I have a remote central locking system to install
when my 84 bus is back on the road. But I will also modify the
driver's door lock to make it keyless-lockable.

I have locked myself out of various cars on a number of occasions...
which is why a spera key lives in my wallet. Said wallet LIVES in my
pants pocket, and is NEVER put down anywhere... always goes back in
pocket immediately after use. So the key is always on hand when I
need it. Anyone can do this. Honest.

I'll have to figure out how to make the slider keyless-lockable...
crazy to have to reach in, fighting to get my hand past the seat and
seatbelt, to fumble for a tiny button, to lock the damn door.

This is why I may eventually graft in Toyota Hiace handles/locks all round.
