Can you add keyless entry to a car without it?

I recently purchased a used car, it came with manual locks. These locks are very inconvenient, and I'm looking to somehow add a keyless entry system to it. Is there a way I can do this, or are there services that will for me, or both? All help and specific suggestions is appreciated. Thanks!

    Yes, they sell aftermarket door lock solenoids and the flip-flop relays. Then you get a car alarm to trip the lock relays. The motorized lock solenoids are more expensive but I would recommend them over the old solenoid style. You may need to pull a set of wires into the doors through the door wire boot, it can be difficult on some cars so be careful you don't jack up the existing wires if any. A base model will only have a set of speaker wires.
