I've bought a kit to add keyless power door from a1electric. Does anybody would like to see a step by step instruction on how to install that system. I could provide some pictures to. I should receive the kit soon.Oh and sorry for my english, i'm a french guy from montreal, canada!!!!

if you would like to do a step by step, for those who dont have power locks and would love them..i know theirs a few out their that would want them, so by all means make a step by step

Cool as soon as I receive the kit I'll make it!!!!

Thanks for this information. My daughter just traded in her 2004 Chrysler T&C for a 2007 Caravan SE. She is not as careful or detailed as I am when buying a car. The Caravan has power door locks but not keyless remote entry. I don't understand why - keyless remote is now standard on most very basic models. I could understand not having power door locks at all - but to have them and not have the keyless remote makes no sense. Perhaps this $60 kit will work. Her husband is very handy when it comes to installing such things.

I'm not sure but in some car, when power door are installed, you only have to program a remote that you can buy at the dealer. Maby you should call them before you buy the kit.

It would be awesome if you could document the whole procedure.I can handle no power windows, but the manual locks are driving me insane. It's really expensive to have them done at a shop and this kit is very affordable. Thanks!

I'm interested!

Ok I've received it. I will begin the wiring tonight. It does'nt look realy hard to install so maybe by thursday I'll be able to post the step-by-steo install.

Ok sorry if it took lots of time but now it's done and it's working really fine. I won't post some pics, because the companie that does the kit has some really good pics and step by step instruction on how to install this on a cable type car. So here is the link:http://www.a1electric.com/cablelock.htm

How long did it take you to install this.I've had this kit on my wish list for years,just never got around to buying one yet.

to do a good job like me It took about 10 hours, but I really love the result. It wasn't hard but you have to take your time to choose a good place to fix the actuators, to do the wiring properly, and to make sure that there is no rattle after the install.

Glad it worked out for you.I think you are the first to install this kit.I think it will only take me 4-6 hours to install the kit though.

haha no problem but I forgot to mention that I don't have a garage, and I did it in the black with a flash light By the way, if you're up for a trip in québec, I could help you with your install, so it could take 2 or 3 hours lol.

Je suis de VERDUN qc, alors peut etre.

ha ben en plus tu parles français lol, depuis tantôt que je me force pour écrire anglais. Envoi moi un im ou un courriel si ca te tente de faire ca un jour, en même temps, on pourrait peut-être faire un petit meet avec d'autre gars!!!

Merci.Pas sur quand je peux aller a montreal, mais je vais vous contacter si je fais.Mon francais n'est pas tres bon plus.

I got a little interested in the thread, until you all starting speaking canadian/french. lol

no the actuator you can unlock with the stock button, but if you want you can add different buttons. When you unlock one door, the three other opens. And it's the same thing with the keyless thing, you only press one time on unlock and all doors open.oh you can also add kit for the hatch to but I don't think it's nessecary, and it's probably really hard to install.
