Geez, that looks like a challenge.

What I really want is an RFID like key that detects when I am within 10 feet of the car and unlocks.

When I leave and go more than 10 feet it should auto lock.

With technology today that should be pretty easy to do...now that would be worth some effort.

Guess you still have to get the keys out of your pocket to start the car but thats a good phase 2 project...push button starting.

I always thought cars technology lagged so far behind and can not understand why they don't adopt the new technologies more aggressively, they have nice sized development departments so its not like they don't have or couldn't contract this work out.

My 1996 Corvette does this - I don't know why all cars don't. It's awesome.
