    Good idea but, $70 is to much for a product that just locks the doors. I doubt I would pay more than $20 for this function.

    Like locking the doors?

    Hi

    As an auto electronics installer for the past 20+ years this is an easy one to do. For $20-30 bucks you can buy a keyless entry add on module and make the doors lock and unlock upon ignition sense. The wiring needed is all there in the driver kick panel. Thank you Toyota for not doing what GM did with data buss locking. Small gauge blue = lock small gauge pink= unlock (double pulse to unlock all doors) Batt + Ign + ground and that's all folks!

    BTW I love not having to have the smart key to start my car. $50 Fortin keyoverride all module and a half hour done!

    Could you be more specific on how to do this? Sounds like a great DIY!


    P.S.
    Dang Chad, you've got your mod links EVERYWHERE!

    Which mod are you talking about? The doorlock mod or the starting your Prius without a key in your pocket?
