Really nice to see this on an older vehicle. The shots in the door are really helpful. I'm thinking about putting one in a 1978 Ford Transit camper van I am fixing up.
I'm putting this system in my mini truck. And I'm making a few other modifications. But you helped clarify so questions I had about keyless entry system.
If you were here in Arkansas, I could make you some ford blanks to fit that remote provided you're still using the original ignition switch or original style
@@JakeHarrington That keyless entry only have one blue wire for the trunk, while the locks on the doors have to + and ground, I asume that the box cant deliver that much output, so the blue is just a signal for the relay to open / close the circut to the boot accurator, just installed on my Mazda MX-5 doors and trunk
the guys that think this is pointless dont have females in their life.. LMAO.. thats why i put them on my jeep.. i had to.. im jealous of your key fobs.. i did a video on these as well.. just seeing what else was out there.. i subbed..
Subbed back to you! I've actually watched your stuff in the past! Good content! It was a cheap kit, but it still works really good today! Range is awesome too. I can unlock it from from quite far away!
This is 100% legit, and most modern aftermarket alarms even have the output signal available. If they do you can DIY a kit for less than 15 bucks. The only limit would be that it's not later era where the lock mech has security guards built in/around it. Late 90s onward roughly. No room for the universal actuators. I found out the hard way.
@@lol-bg4wh You have to pull the interior door trims off and look at the lock actuator. If you can see it and it has a long straight section that you can mount the plunger style actuator near than you can. You can also try looking at the stock parts for the door lock actuator to see what they look like. If they look anything like the universal plunger style they might work. Good luck.
Due to the different ignition switches/wiring in different vehicles, it's hard to say that a remote start will work on "any" vehicle. What vehicle are you working on? I'll see what I can do, to help!
The kit includes some mounting hardware. Mine was directly incline with my lock mechanism, so I just screwed it through the side of the door. You can form the hardware to fit just about anywhere.
Why the 5 wires on the master? Is that so that it can unlock the others when pulling or pushing on the original door locks from inside? @@JakeHarrington
I don't! There are a few options out there. How many wires would you need to run to your doors. If everything is mechanical, there is a braided hose style that's very clean looking!
Sounds like it may be a wiring issue! Or, the way the actuators are placed. If they don't have full travel, it could cause them to unlock after being locked
The mounting hardware came with the kit, but I used a small bolt, for the time being. I plan on grinding a bevel into the metal, so I small screw, can fit flush, and clean against the door.
I have a question..... do the doors stay unlocked while the car is in motion? Or is there a way to unlock 1 door while the others are locked (asking for a 1971 jeep wagoneer) . Thanks and thats a great truck
You can lock the doors while the car is in motion! You can set this up to work just like a new vehicle! There are two fobs, and an extra wire from the harness, so you can install an interior switch if you wanted to!
@@JakeHarrington thanks. Also how would I make the actuators work together with alarm system? Was thinking of getting the actuators alone and purchasing an alarm set that I like.
Yeah the link has been broken! I can recommend a different product for you. This is another highly rated kit on Amazon, that would work as a replacement for this one. Key fobs are slightly different. The rest is the same www.amazon.com/InstallGear-Keyless-4-Button-Remotes-Actuators/dp/B01MDLUTPC/ref=sr_1_25?keywords=kkmoon+keyless&qid=1637209258&qsid=140-0231345-8390808&sr=8-25&sres=B07Y9NPNKJ%2CB09FZP2SY9%2CB077MZC8RJ%2CB077NDP76T%2CB00KTIUG5C%2CB000NJJ1MQ%2CB00HCAYQ0G%2CB08832JX4H%2CB07B93347H%2CB01HP3E5PA%2CB08SBLDN4X%2CB07JQ8Q6X6%2CB07NBMH7T3%2CB0856W45VL%2CB07V1CHK7W%2CB07FCLNLXV%2CB00KTIYXLU%2CB00NBT224O%2CB0771N1ZF9%2CB07GRXFBY5
Your Amazon link is broken, can you update it or post a link in a reply? So many out there, be nice to get one that’s solid, especially if it’s still solid after a year or so
Hey Guys! Haven't forgotten about you! The link for the product I used is no longer good! However, I have done some research on some comparable stuff and found these! The kit is identical, with different key fobs. The rest is very similar! www.amazon.com/AUTOHAUX-Central-Locking-Keyless-Actuator/dp/B07JWF5GCR/ref=sr_1_29?dchild=1&keywords=keyless+entry+car&qid=1626753756&sr=8-29
That’s something I’ve never even thought about doing but I like the idea a lot.
It's a nice thing to have! You can still use your factory locks as well! They work very well, and the signal strength is close to a newer car!
@@JakeHarrington where can i get this, this's coool but your link doesnt work, so van you just send me the link or product name on amazon plzzz?
Really nice to see this on an older vehicle. The shots in the door are really helpful. I'm thinking about putting one in a 1978 Ford Transit camper van I am fixing up.
It's a nice kit! No issues thus far!
I did it yesterday in my 96 Nissan Sentra. Now I'm going for the push start and reverse camera
Those are both solid upgrades as well! I wish I had a reverse camera on everything! lol
Love all the videos of your F100 projects. Getting lots of ideas for my 66. Keep them coming.
Thank you! Much more to come! Gonna be pumping out all kinds of updates after this week!
Great to see power locking is a priority with that amazing truck !
I'm putting this system in my mini truck. And I'm making a few other modifications. But you helped clarify so questions I had about keyless entry system.
Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching!
Price went up after this video 🤣. Thanks for the video.
I noticed that! There are still kits out there for around the same price!
you look like the guy that played Adam in Supernatural
If you were here in Arkansas, I could make you some ford blanks to fit that remote provided you're still using the original ignition switch or original style
Dope video! Planning to try this kit on my 08 accent.
It's a really good system to have! Very simple and surpised at how well it's worked for me so far!
As to the unlock and lock being reversed for you it also is based on which way your actuator is pointing up or down.
I’m totally doing this on my GTO
You can install it on anything, if you get creative with how to place the actuator for the right mechanics!
@@JakeHarrington can you re map the trunk button to do something for a truck??
@@brandonj.3328 yea if you cut the wires it will power anything
I’m trying to to do it my stealth now. Did you actually go through with this?
Awesome video man!!! Ive been looking for power door locks and windows for my truck also!!! Thanks!!!!
Thanks man! I love these locks. The signal for the remotes is very strong! No issues at all!
Nice video man, really helps plan for the installation.
Awesome video , saved me alot of money
Awesome! I'm glad you found the video helpful! The kit still works flawlessly today! Never had an issue!
Just did an install on my 98 Mazda MX-5 including trunk release (you need a relay in order for the trunk to open)
That's interesting! Did you figure out why it needed a relay for that? I've only ever installed this kit on a 2 door.
@@JakeHarrington That keyless entry only have one blue wire for the trunk, while the locks on the doors have to + and ground, I asume that the box cant deliver that much output, so the blue is just a signal for the relay to open / close the circut to the boot accurator, just installed on my Mazda MX-5 doors and trunk
I followed this instruction about wiring the relay czcams.com/video/RvHHLiXIzM0/video.html&lc=UgwdokagPd_pjLBV3zx4AaABAg
Loose wire is the receiver and brown / white are for adding a switch
Thank you. I was stuck wondering what the brown/white wires did. So is the loose wire for increasing signal range?
Great video ,I'm doing that myself to a 53 f100,going to see if you have one for elec. Windows,have to do that too.Keep up the good vids, thankyou.
I haven't done windows yet! I have thought about it though! Thanks for your support!
Did you end up doing it?
I need this and a kill switch plus a new window motor for my car
Thank you for your video
Great!
I purchased this Universal door lock set works great but can you program another remote
the guys that think this is pointless dont have females in their life.. LMAO.. thats why i put them on my jeep.. i had to.. im jealous of your key fobs.. i did a video on these as well.. just seeing what else was out there.. i subbed..

@@JakeHarrington it is a really good kit.. mine drains the battery after a week though.. how about yours?
@@chriscraft77022 i haven't noticed that! But at the same time, I have a newer battery, so maybe I've been lucky

i got a 1996 jeep cherokee country from my grandparents for my birthday. do you think this would work for my car
@@lol-bg4wh You have to pull the interior door trims off and look at the lock actuator.

WISHED IT HAD A TRUNK RELEASE WITH IT TOO? ASKING FOR TO MUCH HUH?
I believe there are kits out there that include a trunk release!
Nice
Thank you!
This is way over my head 😅
I have faith in you! You can do it!
So these would work with the Altman kit?
Looks like the vw / audi keyfobs
Do you think this could work on a 1991 chevy s10 pickup?
you should try some automatic windows and film it as well!!!
Thanks for the recommendation! I will put that on the list!!!
Jake Harrington the rig that “mighty car mods” on youtube used seemed to work pretty well
Is it possible to install this on HONDA CIVIC 2006 model without having power locks but it has power windows??
It's possible to install this kit on nearly anything, as long as you can get creative, and find a place to mount the actuators.
Can you show remote start on a ANY vehicle?
Due to the different ignition switches/wiring in different vehicles, it's hard to say that a remote start will work on "any" vehicle. What vehicle are you working on? I'll see what I can do, to help!
What did you use to mount the actuators in the door? I want to do this in my truck but I want it to be nice and not look half-assed.
The kit includes some mounting hardware. Mine was directly incline with my lock mechanism, so I just screwed it through the side of the door. You can form the hardware to fit just about anywhere.
Those are vw key fobs
We’re u able to use the Key?
👍
Your vid belongs to 2020, is the parts holding up good or the car is gone?
It still works as good as the day I installed it! I've installed these on other vehicles since this video, and they work great as well!
Why the 5 wires on the master? Is that so that it can unlock the others when pulling or pushing on the original door locks from inside? @@JakeHarrington
Holy crap I will have this on my 72 highboy.
Do you by chance have a link for the hinge boot you used to get the wires into the door from the cab?
I don't! There are a few options out there. How many wires would you need to run to your doors. If everything is mechanical, there is a braided hose style that's very clean looking!
amzn.to/3PEG4zV
These are the stainless boots I mentioned!
@@JakeHarrington you rock man, thank you very much.
Keep up the great content.
hey i installed this today but there’s one problem. whenever i lock the doors it automatically unlocks it right after do you know what this could be?
Sounds like it may be a wiring issue! Or, the way the actuators are placed. If they don't have full travel, it could cause them to unlock after being locked
Is there a way for the horn to sound when you lock it
That's actually a really good question! I bet you could run a signal wire to a horn and make it work.
wondering if you would know how i would reach my lock when it’s by the window i got a 07 ford f-150 supercab
Curious how long it lasted mine lasted 3 weeks
Mine are still working just fine 3 years after!
hi how do you change the battery in the remote?
Could this work for a 1995 Toyota Corolla DX?
These are universal and work with nearly any setup. You'll just have to figure out the best place to mount it!
Do you think it’s possible to program a different key fob to this? I’d like to use a 2015 gm key fob if I could
I bet you could probably make it work, but I wonder if you would need a different receiver. That's a good question!
What type of bolts did you use to secure the actuator to the door?
The mounting hardware came with the kit, but I used a small bolt, for the time being. I plan on grinding a bevel into the metal, so I small screw, can fit flush, and clean against the door.
Can you still use the key as well
yes
I have a question..... do the doors stay unlocked while the car is in motion? Or is there a way to unlock 1 door while the others are locked (asking for a 1971 jeep wagoneer) . Thanks and thats a great truck
You can lock the doors while the car is in motion! You can set this up to work just like a new vehicle! There are two fobs, and an extra wire from the harness, so you can install an interior switch if you wanted to!
@@JakeHarrington awesome, thanks
Jake I need you to come do my car 😭😭
I wish I could come out and install this in everyone's car!
Wait how can you use the key switch to start your car? Do you have to take it to make into a copy of your trucks key?
I'm sure it can be done, but I didn't mess with it yet. It has a blank, that would probably work, but I just use the standard key for now.
@@JakeHarrington thanks. Also how would I make the actuators work together with alarm system? Was thinking of getting the actuators alone and purchasing an alarm set that I like.

Can it work on a 68 Barracuda?
You can make it work on pretty much anything older!
Would you be able to program your own key fob to it?
That I don't know! I'm sure there is someone out there that could do it, but I don't have that technology or skill set lol
You would have to install a matching receiver
Hey does anyone know if this can be fitted to work with existing interior buttons?
There a 2 wires you can attach to an interior lock/unlock button of your choice
description? company for locks?
I noticed the link was not working, but I have now updated it in the description of the video!
