Default Remote door lock question

This digging for the key and locks with my arms full is killing me.

I use my Jeep as a utility service vehicle for my computer repair business.
So I'm opening the doors a dozen times a day or better

Is there any simple kit that will allow me to open the door locks remotely?

Many after market alarms kits are also set up to lock/unlock doors

Your vehicle should already be set up for a key fob. Maybe you could pick one up on ebay. Then all you need to do is reprogam it and your done.

I had best buy install auto locks in my 95 Wrangler... and a buddy hooked up a remote start on it (a manual).. great field bon fire party relief... I'm surprised no one ever got hurt!

For those who dont understand.. A remote start on a manual is "illegal" b/c if you leave it in gear, the tuck will drive off until it hits something !!!!!! or until you hit the button again.... like I said, VERY lucky it stayed in range and no one ever got hurt.. but a hell of a lot of fun...
