  1. I'm sorry to say, I highly doubt you could have it installed without a substantial cost. There's antennas that are installed in the driver's seat (to detect key to allow starting of engine), another in the door (unsure of exact location) that detect the key to allow you to open the doors and also entennas in the hatch area that actually detect the key incase you lay it in the back hatch and try to lock the doors. It's a pretty elaborate system, thus the high price from the factory (about $2k I think).

    I have the system and like it. It can be a little trempermental at times, but I'm glad I have it. Though, I doubt I would pay the initial cost if I was ordering the car new. It just happen to have it when I purchsed it.

    Sorry, probubly not the answer you wanted. I know, I've looked into installing the in-dash compass, TPMS, and heated stearting wheel and had to give up all those due to un-justifiable high cost.

    Have a good day.

    Matt,

    Thanks for your feedback. Yes, the antennae will probably be expensive. As long as the system doesn't require replacing control modules, I suppose it will only be moderately expensive (it hurts, just not as bad). There seems to be many posts on the site about problems with Entry and Drive.

    Enjoy the game!
