I just got done installing a remote keyless entry system in my xA RS. It took a little over an hour start to finish and cost only $62 shipped. The system has 2 remotes and comes with an engine kill relay, all connectors already installed, zip ties and instructions. I got this from Bill Turner at Scion Specialties.

I'm not real good with electrical and ICE stuff and I got the whole system in without trouble. The directions were simple and straight forward. Bill also offers to be available via phone for any tech questions.

If you want a cheap EZ to install keyless system contact Bill.

Thanks for the great service Bill!!

whats the website? i looked under www.scionspecialties.com and no dice. please help

 

His site isn't up yet. Email him at scionspecialistvegas@yahoo.com.

 

Thanks for all the props. I try to be as much help as I can to all my scion friends. I aplogize about www.scionspecialties.com my former webdesigner and I are arguing over who owns that domain. Look for my new website www.Scionspecialties.net. Should be up in about two weeks. Bill

 

that sucks man...hope everthing works out tho.

 

Sounds sweet. What brand is it? What do the remotes look like? You say it only took an hour, is it pretty much plug and play? I've got side curtain airbags, will that cause any installation issues?

I've been wanting a remote keyless entry but haven't gotten around to getting one yet. Maybe that's a blessing in disguise, $62 shipped sounds pretty good.
Thanks

 

the brand is accelevision, www.accelevision.com I have been using thier products for over 12 years now and have very low failure rate they also have a life warranty on thier security products. The connections are straight forward. As covered in the instructions, plus if anyproblems I am just a phone call away.

i like your avitar."

I am wanting to add keyless remote entry to my xA. I'm definately NOT going to be drilling any holes myself, but I think I could figure out how to make a few connections.

So, I'm seriously considering going this route . Called the dealership and it would be $240...

So, a few questions....

Adding something like this won't invalidate your warrenty or anything will it?

Is there any hole drilling required with this kit or just making connections?

Do you have to do any dash tearing out, side panel removing and if so how hard is it to get everything back like it was??

I'd like to think I could do this, but am VERY nervous about damaging my car and really have no experience working on cars.

 

it requires no drilling, no cutting of wires, and will not void any warranties, the wires will t-tapped, aand it only requires removing a couple of panels, which are easily replaced. Bill

 

Bill is the MAN!!! I installed another keyless entry/alarm and it crapped out. Bill sold me his system and it was exactly as discribed. Easy install in about 1 hour and he really is there for phone support, I know, I used it!!!!

Good Luck with the new site Bill!!!!

 

I'm definitely going to get one, but I'm wating for the website to come up. It seems possible that I'll want to buy something else that Bill's got up his sleeve.

Let's see that site scionspecialties

 

Any eta on the site, Bill?

Thanks

 

Translation problem on shopping cart, I am working closely with the designer. thanks for the inquiry. Bill

 

www.scionspecialties.net is up and running. stop and cruise it. thanks Bill

 

any chance you or someone else can give a quick rundown on what has to be done to install the alarm?

 

Three screws to remove, the lower steering column panel, remove diver kick panel, then tap a few wires and install. The instruction are very wire specific. Bill

 

just order from bill. will let you all know how the install goes. i too am not much of an ice man

 

any big enough pictures of the remote?
sounds like an interesting cheap package....
do you know if the wiring changed in the xA 2006 model?
is there anything with a starter kill?

thanks
