The car I am looking at getting has door poppers on it (not completed yet)

What 'emergency entry' options are there for these -

if the battery fails?
if the remote fails?

none mate, you can add a pull cord to maybe get in the trunk to the battery but thats about it

That's what I was worried about.

At the moment, you can get in -

1. because there's no windows in the doors, so you can reach the inner handle
2. The drivers door isn't fitted

Will need to give this aspect some serious thought.

You could add a button to open the doors if the remote wasnt working but if the car battery goes flat you would need to be able to get to it

Not entirly should my remote fail (which it did) I can access the Battery (open the hood) from the outside of the car. chances of both solenoids failing should be slim, I hope...

Mechanical overide for the boot is a must for me though cos thats where my fuel filler is

Had the same on my BMW when remote doesnt work you have to crawl through the boot into the car to open it.
