Electronic Keypad on exterior
#22
well, they may not look too cool on the doors, but they're the wave of the future...either the pads or some keyless entry/start system...the manufacturers want to do away with keys altogether and the locks on the doors..they can save a ton of money by doing away with ignition switches and door locks. jackg 90seville 94k

I had one on my explorer. It is really good if someone else needs to use your car and you can't exchange keys. Also great if you lock keys in car. I wouldn't put one in view, but, would like one hidden (like under the fake gascap).

With a keypad.......doesn't that defeat the purpose of laser keyed technology? [/b][/quote]
I think the point was that it wouldnt be an eyesore if it were hidden on the car somewhere.

But after 1 week everyone will know that there's a keypad there?

There is one you can buy from ford for 100 bucks that works with every ford with power locks. someone just stuck it on the car. You can stop by a ford parts counter tomorrow and get one on your Ford.
ford store acessories
you can mount it wherever you want on the car

I find the keypad ugly and an eyesore, but for its purpose, (ie hitting the beach) it is a good idea.
Ususally we have 1 designated person watching the "stuff" (cooler, camera, etc.) so having the car keys around is ok anyways for me.
