I want to install a remote keyless entry for my accord, possible?

Do it have power door locks already? If yes, it's pretty simple. If no, it's a major PITA.

Installing it's gonna be a very expensive and very involved process, then.

its not that bad...you can get the actuators at any car audio place, then its just a matter of puttting them in. A keyless entry system will cost right about the same as an alarm, so think about getting one of those instead of a keyless system

I hear ya man doing that kinda stuff to a car can be expensive. My friend got an alarm put on his truck at a local bass car audio and he didnt have power locks... i think it cost him around 350 bucks for everything.

Wow, your first post, welcome to ATOT buddy.

WTF? Is that something to do with the sack of a goat, or a Tri Carb GTO?

Nope no power locks

I can't believe you can even buy a 2002 Accord (or any car for that matter) without power locks.

Welcome to AT. Your name contains goat in it so therefore you will far exceed any and all expectations.

My dad purchased a 2002 Honda Accord VP (like DX except with air conditioning standard) and I want to add a remote keyless entry system into it. How hard is this and how expensive? Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

Go to your local car audio store. There you should find any number of realtively inexpensive car alarm systems that include keyless entry with power door locks.
Or.. you could go to a local dealer and have them install the optional factory keyless entry/security system on the car. Either way is going to cost you at least $300.

Didn't think that was possible either. I have a 2002 Accord LX V6. Power locks seem to be standard.

coincidentally, i was wondering the same thing the other day, but it was in regards to my 1993 accord. i have a 1993 integra that i'm planning to junk, but i was wondering if i could take the alarm/keyless entry out of that car and put it in the accord. will this be a pain in he arse? if not, i will ask my friend to help me do it

Dont waste your money on stuff like that.. thats my opinion


Just get a decent alarm.....

i dont think gettign the keyless remote entry is a security measure...its more for style. I mein once you get those in you can do some body work and get rid of the the door handles...but that kinda requires that oyu get a remote controlled window thingy...oh poop...i confused myself. NEver mind anything i just said. JUST GET A DECENT ALARM..which should get oy uthe keyless entry anywho. im gonna go now.

and to all the "aces" of these forums...thanks for the warm welcome, i plan on comeing here pretty regularly.
