Electric locks

In another thread I inquired about car alarms, and most of them come with keyless entry.

So, looking into that, I see you will need the electric door locks, and LMC has some for $50. Are there any alternatives to those out there? I know LMC is higher priced in a lot of categories, I hope this is one.

Are you required to use the keyless entry for the alarms?

Not required, but I figured since I was at it, I might as well make an upgrade.
