but the question with the interior lights is that you can use the lights not only for the lock/unlock but for any other reason... or not turn the interior lights on completely...
as your significant other is turning the lights on to look for her cellphone in the purse, your mirrors will fold at 75 MPH on the highway... lol...
but something else in the circuitry for remote operation - sure, why not...

I looked at wiring it to work with the central locking once I had everything apart before wiring it to the ignition and the easiest way would be to use the trigger wires from the control module behind the glove box the lock/unlock trigger wires are the big blue (pin 14) and big white (pin 13) BUT these wires only have a brief (1sec) 12V pulse fed down them so they wont work the timer relays as they need a constant live, it could be done but would need 2 additional relays that switch with a pulse that can then feed the 12v to the timer relays, OR see if a self powered timer relay is available that only requires a pulse then it would be easy.
As I already had the gear to wire it off the ignition I just went ahead and did it that way.
