Automatic Door Lock?

EDIT: Yes I did search before posting, hear me out.

Long story short - I very nearly got hijacked on the way home last night. For as long as I've been driving, I haven't locked the doors. Call me stupid, or don't, but needless to say I'll be doing it from now on.

So a colleague is driving a really old Mazda Sting, that happens to be fancy enough to automatically lock the doors when driving, and unlocking them when the key is taken out of the ignition. Why do we not have this feature

I did a search and it seems that "yes it's not fitted" and "you can only do it on the automatic".

However, I drive the manual, and my thinking is:
  • The seatbelt warning alarm only triggers at a certain speed
  • The doors can lock and unlock from a signal, because central locking

Do you think it will be possible to mod this???? Is it a common mod that people do on other cars??
