Here is the full story:

I bought a Nova with de-locked doors and has some sort of aftermarket central locking that is controlled by the alarm.

Problem is who ever fitted the alarm is a numpty and didn't have a clue what they're doing so bodged a lot of things. I got sick of trying to sort it out so took the whole interior loom out which is integrated with the alarm and bought an un-touched standard one.

Problem is now I have nothing to lock the doors with.

I left all the central locking stuff in, the only wires coming out of the motors is a live and earth.

So, is there some sort of simple aftermarket remote central locking system I can buy and connect it to motors?

Basic Thatcham approved alarm with central locking. £100, loads of features, if you're not bothered about security you can leave the immobilisers and stuff disconnected. Job jobbed.

I don't want an alarm tbh, trying to keep things simple as possible.

Well if you don't want electronic locks, and you don't want manual locks. Then your options are a) sunroof b) tailgate.

just use the central locking features then as Iain said, if you want reliability a cheap central locking kit isn't the way to go imo.
