    How to lock doors

    Hi,

    I'm in the market to buy a 1992-1995 Viper. I searched, without success. Can you lock the doors on these cars? How?

    The doors are able to be locked. You use the keyfob to lock them.

    You can lock the doors from the inside but it does you no good because there are no windows.

    Well there are windows but you can't lock them either....

    Gen 1 door locks work to keep them from flying open if you are bouncing around in an accident.

    I have a 94 the key fob is only used to set the security alarm which I disconnected. I have had convertibles in the past and never locked the doors feeling if someone wants in they will cut the top or break a window. Get one they are fun

    The Gen 1 Viper do have door locks...but they are manual locks operated from the inside. The Fob (as mentioned above) only sets the alarm. I find the manual locks another part of the Gen 1 charm.

    If memory serves, locks were mandated in all cars...

    At some point in my '96 RT's past...a door popper was installed on the driver's door. By the time I got the car, it had been disconnected. I hooked it up to work when the key fob turns off the security system..same as it would unlock the doors in a vehicle with electric locks. The security system is shared with (again, if memory serves) the Sebring convertible.
