Car Alarms: 2002 Kia Rio replacing manual locks, keyless entry systems, kia rio


Question
QUESTION: I am looking to replace my manual locks with power locks, keyless entry and remote start system.  I don't have the first idea as to where to begin...

Also, where do I go to have this done?  Can a regular mechanic handle this task?

ANSWER: Not hard to do at all.

A 2 door central kit is 39.95
A 4 door kit is 59.95
And the control box/remote starter/keyless entry systems
start at 65.00 and go to 300.00.

All we need to do is to nail down what
suits your needs.

Have a look at www.startbyremote.com and see if
something there that peaks your interest.

Let me know.

QUESTION: Thank you for that!!!

How will this affect my battery?  Should I expect to purchase new batteries every 6 months with the new equipment?  Also, where do I purchase the window kit?

Answer
I have the window kits too!
Pricey for a complete retrofit of the car though.
The kits for 2 doors is 180.00. In my shop,
we charge 110.00 labor for each door. So make
that part of the budget when shopping for an installer.

The drain these present to a battery is nominal.
