So, a few weeks ago I bought a keyless entry system off of ebay. It has the "german" or Audi looking flip key fobs and the electronic box ties into the factory pneumatic vacuum pump under the rear seat. It is a slick operation and was not hard at all to install. The TE's are a little more difficult than the sedans since inorder to access the pump(passenger side) there is carpet to pull up under the rear seat unlike in the sedans.

I finally got around to finishing the wiring this weekend and DAMN is it nice to have keyless in this car.

Good stuff mang. Can you make a write-up?

 

Yeah, maybe this weekend. I dunno if I'll do pics though, cause I hate to tear it all apart again. I could do pics in a few months when I am done with this quarter and put the same system in my mom's E320. Maybe sooner If I need a break.

I've witnessed the sweetness of his keyless. A must have if you got the cash money.

 

Yeah, Cash Money

 

 

Sounds like a sweet setup...I did the latest Viper alarm with keyless and bump sensors/glass break etc...I would never go back to key operated locks

 

Is it possible to hook up shock sensors to the stock system?

 

Not that I'm aware...the stock system doesn't have that type of "brain" to register and trigger the system. All the stock one does is go off if the system is unlocked without the key when locked.

 

and if the hood is opened or the car is put on an incline ie towed

dude, hook up your city lights, they would look so sick with your LED's!

 

x2
keys are for sukkas

 

i have had keyless for maybe 2-3 years now... its nice...

also put remote start.....

Vaguely on Topic

One of the German options was a oil heater that would warm the car before you actually went off for the day.

 

i want that! it would be great for the 10 degree days

 

True dat

 

I have seen this on two different w126 euromodels, a little computer screen in the center console that you program to come on at certain times and temps. It is made by Webasto, and uses either diesel or gas to heat the coolant in the car which keeps the motor and interior toasty. very slick.

you can still buy these systems from Webasto, they also make seat heaters, and the ragtop sunroofs, also found in the old Ponton models.

 

Here's some more keyless keys.
They're a little more because shipping is $12 not free but the blanks are usable on a 124.



They are also available on ebay.

 

I have this system installed on my E220

they sucks man,they wont response if i stand 2 metres away from the car

must change them with new system

 

The eBay seller doesn't have any more w124 keyless listed anymore

 

I had keyless for about 2 years now.. I couldnt imagine this car without it. it is a must have!!!

 

ive always had keyless, couldnt imagine unlocking a benz without a remote..seems unclassy? lol.

 

really? They are all practially the same thing, just different keys I would assume.

I believe that the w126 and w201 share the same blank, I would check, and then just order one of those

 

i'm sure he'll be posting more w124 soon. I'm very tempted to buy one!

 

I ordered this one yesterday. A bit more but tired of unlocking the doors after someone tried to break into my car a few years ago.
