Auto lock doors after starting to drive?
A lot of cars automatically lock the doors after you get up to like 15 MPH and I was wondering if there is anyway to do this with my Lancer OZ Rally. I have a keyless entry system so that might help.

Technically, you don't need an alarm, but no company I've ever heard of will actually make a device that only serves to automatically lock the doors with the starter and open them with the engine cut.
The reason you see them on alarms is that most alarms also have a keyless entry system, so they are wired into the electronic locks, and they are wired into the ignition for either remote starting or for ignition lockout or just to sense the ignition. It's a simple software thing in an alarm system to add that feature since some people will want it while others won't.
The fact that you have keyless entry already doesn't make it any easier than just having electronic locks. There's a signal wire that when it gets voltage, will lock the doors. There's another that will unlock them. Essentially, your keyless entry system integrates there. You could get an alarm that will also have a keyless entry system that connects in there as well as the ignition to do what you want or you could make your own system (depending on your electronics expertise) that will do that for you.
Ultimately, get an alarm if you want the feature or don't if it's not worth it to you.
