Exclamation Key in ignition/Door chime mod note.

I've done the key in ignition with door open mod, works great but a word warning, you know how if you hit the power locks with the key in ignition before the mod it would auto unlock the drivers door to prevent your keys from being locked in? Well that doesn't work now after the mod, the truck doesn't know your keys are in the ignition. I went to use the key FOB to shut the interior lights off while walking away and the keys wasn't in my pocket, <?xml:namespace prefix = v ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" /><v:shapetype id=_x0000_t75 stroked="f" filled="f" path="m@4@5l@4@11@9@11@9@5xe" oreferrelative="t" o:spt="75" coordsize="21600,21600"><v:stroke joinstyle="miter"></v:stroke><v:formulas><v:f eqn="if lineDrawn pixelLineWidth 0"></v:f><v:f eqn="sum @0 1 0"></v:f><v:f eqn="sum 0 0 @1"></v:f><v:f eqn="prod @2 1 2"></v:f><v:f eqn="prod @3 21600 pixelWidth"></v:f><v:f eqn="prod @3 21600 pixelHeight"></v:f><v:f eqn="sum @0 0 1"></v:f><v:f eqn="prod @6 1 2"></v:f><v:f eqn="prod @7 21600 pixelWidth"></v:f><v:f eqn="sum @8 21600 0"></v:f><v:f eqn="prod @7 21600 pixelHeight"></v:f><v:f eqn="sum @10 21600 0"></v:f></v:formulas><vath o:connecttype="rect" gradientshapeok="t" o:extrusionok="f"></vath><?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o:lock aspectratio="t" v:ext="edit"></o:lock></v:shapetype><v:shape id=_x0000_i1025 style="WIDTH: 53.25pt; HEIGHT: 25.5pt" type="#_x0000_t75" alt="0"><v:imagedata o:href="http://images.ford-trucks.com/forums/images/smilies2/sign0012.gif" src="file:///C:\DOCUME~1\runyb04r\LOCALS~1\Temp\msohtml1\01\cli p_image001.gif"></v:imagedata></v:shape>in the locked truck, I was glad I had a hidden key. Just a word of info.

I've been thinking about wiring a switch inline with mine. I only need it off sometimes...
