Adding Entry Keypad
I want to add a "keyless entry keypad" on my door. I don't have the "keyless entry" or factory alarm on my truck, so I can't use the wireless keypad everyone's selling. I finally found a "wired" keypad for sale, but now I need the wiring harness for it. Anyone know the easiest way of doing this? What does it wire to? The actuator or the L/U switch?

Ok, well, I think I'm going to go ahead and buy the keypad and start looking for the wiring harness tomorrow. If anyone happens to know the part #, PLEASE feel free to share it with me

Thanks for the sug., griff. What I'm doing is installing a keyless/alarm system and new door handles without locks. I plan on using my alarm to gain entry into the truck, but I want to add the keypad just in case I lose the remotes for the alarm. I have the 6-spd manual, so I didn't want to mess with the remote start. I'm also adding remote battery terminals just in case the batteries go dead. Any one have a suggestion on where to install the remote terminals?

If you are going to so that, then buy a wireless keypad that you can program. They can be had for ~$50. You will need to find one that is compatible with the alarm you are getting, though. Most alarms disable the factory FOB when armed.
