If you do a little searching, there is some good info on here regarding the installation process. Many have used the A1electric kits (http://www.a1electric.com/) for the door locks, and they sell the Colibri window kits as well.

Going the OEM route (even with junkyard parts) would be quite expensive.

I personally prefer aftermarket keyless entry (and optionally remote start) to OEM, as the good aftermarket ones have much better range. With my UltraStart remote starter, I can start my Yaris from the opposite end of a Home Depot.

I, too considered just getting an aftermarket remote start/keyless entry

but most of them require you already have power locks >=|

for the system that you have (or any remote start for that matter) do you believe this is true?

aka x we would have to buy one of these power lock kits then get the keyless?

You can install remote start without power windows or locks. You can even install it before you get around to adding the power lock kit, and then tie in the power lock kit once installed.
