Damnit
So my drivers side door lock is stripped, it won't turn to lock or unlock.
Can anybody recommend an inexpensive keyless entry remote system
with a car alarm option?
I still have the speaker from the last keyless entry/alarm system that
was already installed when I got the truck, but it was a cheap
POS system and didn't even work right so I just took it out.

And also, I used to rekey locks a lot, like for regular doors in office buildings,
Is it possible to rekey automotive locks so I don't have to mess with 2 keys?
I would imagine that there are just pins on the inside of the cylinder same as
Standard locks, but can you access them to rekey it?

Thanks

 

A good locksmith can make a key for anything, but the old school locksmith are dieing out that are good at making a key for a lock with out having to have a copy of the old key.

Cheap car alarm systems, probably best bet is to scan Ebay are buy direct and spend the money. The good ones you buy direct are around $120-300 and the even nicer ones go for higher, but some times you can find these same systems on ebay for half that price.

P.S: I shaved handles on my truck once and spent little over $700 for one to pop open the doors etc(forgot what company i bought it from), but you had to be damn close to the stupid truck to get the single to work(like unlocking the doors etc).. Found one on Ebay for under $150 that worked 20 times better.

Just my personal experience, so hope it helps.

 

Thanks for the ebay idea.
Vipers are pretty good AFAIK but are more than I wanna spend.
However I found a viper on ebay for only $70 which does exactly what I want:
Keyless entry and alarm.
I think I will give that a try.
Anybody have any experience with a Viper 350 Car Alarm/keyless entry System?

 

$20 and you can get 2 lock cylinders with 2 new keys. Whats cheaper than that?
