I appreciate being able to check if I remembered to lock the doors.

How exactly does that work with a keyfob...?

There are "two-way" remote start kits that have a display on the fob to report back AC state, engine remaining run time, and door lock state. It also helps for making sure the button you pressed actually reached the car.
