Keyless Entry - 10/26/2007 3:14:51 AM    CobaltNewbee   Posts: 2 Joined: 10/26/2007 Status: offline I just purchased a 2007 Cobalt LS and was wondering if it is possible to have a keyless entry system installed in it. The windows and locks are manual (not by choice; by dealership's availability) but would really like a keyless entry system in it. Any suggestions? < Message edited by CobaltNewbee -- 10/26/2007 6:05:47 AM > Post #: 1

It would have been cheaper to have your dealer find and bring one in for you, a little extra freight but this will run you prolly around 700-1000 bucks, time you find the parts and get it all put in, also if its new have a dealer or someone do it or no warranty. although I cant see a dealer bithcing about you adding it, but ya never know The reason I say go command start is these come with key fobs, if you go GM you will have to buy the fob seperate, and here these can run around 70-100 bucks  themselves < Message edited by MalibuMaxxSS -- 10/26/2007 9:54:23 AM > _____________________________ 2006 Malibu Maxx SS, computer Flashed, undercar LED, Cold air intake, 18' Potenzas, Limo tint front to back 1990 YJ Lifted Locked and always muddy, posi loc, 33s TSLs, weber carb. drop tailgate...

Junked 2007s are few and far between... Do you think an earlier model Cobalt would have compatible parts for the powerlocks? (in reply to MalibuMaxxSS) Post #: 3

I personally use directed automate AM2 for key fob and reciever, then use the 524K door lock actuator/controller kit. (in reply to MalibuMaxxSS) Post #: 5
