    I also have the same generation Escort and have been thinking about doing a remote locking mod.

    To do it, you will need a kit like this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/291640139529

    I have a similar kit here from my old Punto. I never got around to wiring it up lol

    For cost of postage and possibly a new battery for the remote...could be worth a shot...if so, message me
