Hi Kevin,
Yes, it is possible to modify it, but it the hardwire type of
programming.  I never did complete the project, mainly because I
didn't want to cut wires, and I never got around to ordering the
terminals/pins I would need to do it the reversible way.
I wanted to preserve the harness, so I figured out how to replace
the correct terminals to replace wires in certain connectors.
The old wires were to be left hanging so they could be replaced later
to back out the change.

I'm not terribly sure about the 94, because my
research was done on the 95, but this is what I found about the 95.

In brief:

On our cars, these things are wired together:
        1) the switch contact on the door lock switches when the key is
           held in the close position
        2) the input to the central locking module that says that
           the car should lock
        3) the input to the window and sunroof controls that says that
           the windows should go up, the sunroof close.

Further, there is an un-used input on the central locking module.
This is the "confort close should activate output."   Call this (4).

On some European cars, (3) is detached from (1) and (2) and is connected
to (4).

I have more details if any one wants to hear them.
I am trying not to bore the whole list with them.

Franco
