The door latch removal is very straight forward, unhook all rods, four screws and it’s done.
You could easily install an aftermarket remote locking system.
They are dirt cheap, work very well, and with the added bonus of remote control.
You can even keep the original wiring.
Two relative threads:
SII
Hallo everybody,
as you already know from “Door lock switch fallen apart” I’m going to replace the central door locking switch in my SII car. For all SIII owners: SII cars do not operate the power locks from the doors; instead you have to open the doors with a key, enter the car and then operate the power locks from a switch that is mounted at the location of your sunroof switch. In a way this switch on SII cars is very similar to the type of switch commonly used these days to permit passengers…

Kiekert system
Just finished adding a wireless remote locking system to my 85 XJS.
My car has internal locking switches on each door and the key for actuation on the outside. Luckily I have the original wiring schematic that came with the car because it is difficult to get the right information year by year… I have attached a photo of the relevant part of the wiring diagram.
Essentially there are orange/red and orange/green wires that run from the manual switches to the relays that lock and unlock the doors …
