OK I want the following done to my car, can someone please confirm that this can be done and if they could recommend where to get it done that would be great. I am very fussy over who touches my car and would be willing to travel an hour or two (from Lincoln) for a decent mechanic.

I assume the following can be done all by enabling them in the Tech2/CANBUS/etc....

Automatic Door Locking Enabled at 10mph (or whatever the speed is)
Trip Computer Enabling (I already have the BID, I assume that's all I need)
Cruise Control Enabling (Will get the stalk & clutch switch fitted myself beforehand)
Electric Windows Controllable via Key Fob
Any other nice features the car has hidden away worth activating


I know there is a meet on November 25th, will anyone there be able to do it?


Any help is greatly appreciated.


Oh and I have a 2004 Astra H 1.6 Club 5dr

Hmmm that might be a little far to travel, but maybe worth considering if he can do the rest too (and I could try the cruise control at 70mph on snakes pass lol, prob a deathwish at 30mph)... but anyway I tried holding the button down but I don't seem to get any feedback to say its activated, nor did it seem to work. On another note I was under the belief that when a bulb had blown the car should display Inps2 on the dash, had a brake light out the other day but it did no such thing... is this also optional?

Ah brilliant I'll send him a PM, yes snakes pass is ace, but get ever so slightly put off by bunches of flowers beside the car shaped holes in the walls, big F*** off drops and the odd sheep that randomly camp on blind corners... Britain's best death-trap, but oddly enjoyable.

Lets say I go about doing some of this myself, what exactly would I need to hook my laptop up to my car and what software is there out there (don't want to spend silly money if any), would scantool do the job?
