Adding a Keypad to the Center console for security
Hi everyone.
I wanted to find out if there is a product out there that would allow me to add a password security to my car? I wanted to install it in the place where seat-warmers (monogram series) are supposed to be. I wanted to system to require a passkey upon ignition. Otherwise the system should either shut the car down or not let it ignite in the first place. I have a new RS 1.0 and it comes with Push to Start. I wanted to add system as a security precaution. and It would look like a spy car. Here is an example of what I am looking for: http://hackaday.com/2011/11/17/addin...nition-system/ I just wanted to find a well designed product that I can get it installed at a shop, and a keypad that would perfectly fit(designed) in the place for a center console plaque |
Nothing's been designed specifically for this car. There are numerous DIY designs out there if you wanted to have one built, but it would be a custom job and it would be more of a novelty than a real security device, as all of these keypad type systems could be overridden by completing the wiring circuit to the ignition.

^ Yep novelty only and likely not a cheap one. These cars already have an engine immobilizing system so nobody can start it without the fob anyway.
Well...not the average person at any rate since for any security device made, there is somebody that knows a way around it. |
Activate your factory security alarm that comes with the RS1.0. If it's like the 10 Series & the Monogram, these did not come alarmed from dealership. There are a few threads on it.
