Hey guys, Ive got an 04 that I want to add a keyless entry pad on the drivers door like the fords have. I am looking for an aftermarket kit that I could add without doing alot of modifying.
I saw a kit one time that had a wireless pad that attached to the door with 3m tape and then a module that wired in under the dash, this is exactly what I'm lookin for. Does anyone know where to find one??
I know bulldog used to make one but im not sure about how the quality would be, there are some negative reviews about it on amazon and it seems to be a discontinued product from bulldog.
Heres a link. Amazon.com: Bulldog TP-100 Touch Pad Keyless Entry System: Automotive

I also found this kit, it looks really good but it has to drill through the door panel. The wiring harness also has to pass through the door jamb, I think it would eventually end up causing problems there, with pinched wires ect.

Has anyone else installed something like this, or know of any other manufactures that make something like this??
Thanks Alot.

as for wire through the door jamb, thats how speaker wires and electric window controlls get their power and such route it the same way and they wont pinch

true, but I dont think you can run your wires in the factory boot because of the harness plug and such, I could be wrong but I think you'd hafta run your own boot and gromits.
It is Possible, but its hard to beat wireless.
The factory keychain with the door locks on it works for years on the original batery so I dont think that should be an issue.

there is a diagram on how to route the wire through the doors in here

you obviously havn't driven many miles, I had to redo the wire harness on both of my rear doors because they wouldnt lock/ work the windows.

Also, you can pass wires around the plugs in the boots, did it on a buddys pickup for the lights we put in his mirrors.

Thanks for such wonderful commends Pyro!! :thumbsup: But the fact remains that the factory wires DO run through the door jamb.

well till they figure out how to pass concitrated electrons thru thin air, i dont know how else they are gonna do it.

This kit looks great! was the one you had wired or wireless?? I see they offer both. The keypad styling isnt that attractive, but im mostly going for function anyway.

Ive seen a few vehicles with these modular door contacts. they eliminate the wires through the jamb. since i'll only be using the kep pad with the door shut I think this is the way to go.

These look good too. if you had to run wires to the door this would be a nice way to do it.

Mine was wired, i eventually upgraded to this after i had it repainted, all my friends could never figure out how i did it, ive really been thinkin bout getting on of these for my 08' so i can lock yhe doors and keep it running. Id put it behind my mirror, that'd be slick.

Thats Trick!! ive never seen that before. behind the mirror or on the window behind the drivers door would be sweet!!:thumbsup:

Yeah iam thinking behind the mirror would work great, or on the windshield in the lower left corner, only problem is i can barley reach my windshield. Witj my lift i can walk under my tow mirrors and not touch them with my head. Yes i am short, laugh it up.
