Coding to close windows, moonroof and fold mirrors when locking w. key fob, C.A.

Hello there, wanted to know if there's a way to code the windows and moonroof to close automatically when locking? I already know there's a way to code the folding mirrors. Every car I've owned doesn't do this and it would seem to be something obvious that it should. Maybe it's for safety reasons, but it would be good to have some sort of sensor that can detect if there's an obstruction. There should be an override in case some one is trying to car jack me when I'm in the car closing the window like if I hold the switch or something.

When I hold down the unlock button, it does all windows and the moonroof.

So does mine, which I'll sometimes do if the car's been in the sun. But as soon as I get in and start it up the AC comes on and the windows and sun roof get closed, and they stay closed, so I've never had a reason to code them to close on locking the car, and can't say if the moon roof closes as well.

My windows and moon roof stay open after I open with the key fob. The AC comes on only if I use the venting function. I still like to open the windows for ventilation and want to be able to close them on locking. Also, I've noticed there is more turbo lag on hot days with the AC on so I may turn it off. It's also for piece of mind that I know my windows are closed when I lock my car, I've left them open before.

Is there a way to make it close every time you lock, not having to hold down the button and wait for it to close? Also would like not to have to hold it down to open, just have it open all the way after it starts opening.
