most keyless entry systems will do what this is saying, from a basic one to a alarm with locks it doesnt say anything about those being keys so you will have two remotes keys on your key chain as far as window mods it doesn't say that they are included. they pretty much will control a module...but any installer knows if you extend your output or use a aux out you can control the windows via a extended ground to roll up or down . what i m saying is the auxillary channels are programable on alarms and some keyless entrys. ebay type alarms and keyless entries are buyer beware since if you have a issue with them they usually take for ever to exchange or in some cases no REFUNDS. check out any local place to see what they have to offer. since my mercedes has the keyless/alarm i just added a directed piece which adds shock to it. everything else is already on like keyless, point of entry , and even anti tow features and it will also do windows and sunroof. a good name is directed electronics which pretty much makes most alarm / keyless entrys systems like viper,python,clifford etc to name a few

acutally I wanted this keyless entry cause of the flip out key. It does provide you with a flip out key where you can attach ur existing key or get a locksmith to copy it out onto the remote's flip out blank. Gives a nice updated look.
I do know many places in town that do upgraded alarms along with keyless entries, but those cost around 250+ just saw this online so nt sure if its worth it

Yup! Got them installed last summer. The only downfall is the range. Other than that, works great and works everytime!
Im thinking of getting their trunk opener next summer!

I highly recommend them (USKeyless)!

Do you have any tips or procedures for the process?

I don't have keyless at all in my 202. I want and plan to install it myself.

I just need some help

eg. where main system is location, wire codes and parts needed.

If you have a chance and can help out, please let me know.

Thanks.

Sorry. I cant help much with the installation part, because I brought it to a shop to have it installed. However, I do know that the main system is underneath the dash, meaning beneath the wheels driver side. In terms of wires etc.. they are all provided in the box, you need nothing extra to do the install. In my opionon, if your not famliar with the wiring of the car (like myself) I would get it done by a professional installer, because electronic stuff can really go all screwy on you if you do something wrong

let me know if you have any other questions, ill try my best to answer them

Once you have the wiring diagram, it's no big deal if you have connected two wires before.

I installed the basic lock/unlock keyless entry by tapping into the line that is in the trunk.. It is on the right side behind the trunk carpet. It is inside the foam-like black box.

You only need to connect two wires and you're set. The brown wire is the ground and I think it was either the black wire or the blue wire that was 12V. In any case you can test this with a tester. From what I remember, they are both the thickest wires. It cost me around $30 with shipping for keyless entry.

If you want the lights to flash and your horn to sound to alert you that you locked the doors, then you would need to tap into the wires underneath the steering wheel as sensoryx has said. It requires some extra wires to be connected, but the concept is the same..

Interesting.

I also have a 95 C280. I was initially just looking for a keyless entry system.

Then I thought.. if I'm going to spend tons of time wiring, why not get an alarm. The only reason, why I'm not so eager for the alarm and remote start is because, I hardly would ever use remote start and if my alarm went off.. it could be going off for hours, before I'd get to the car say after work and find that it's been going off for hours.

The main thing I hate is using the key to unlock/lock the doors. In my area, no criminal or car jacker is going to spend time breaking in and hot wiring my 202.. too much time, when they could jack a corolla within 3 mins lol..

Anyways... what keyless system did you use? Heck, if it's soldering on 2 wires.. and it's accessable within the trunk, I'll be up for it!

I've opened the left side of the trunk, but never the right, so I'll have to look into that area.

Anyways, let me know more if you can please.

Thanks.
