The earlier part is a bit sobering. The keyless entry thing is handy but you have to ask yourself if spending hours and hours to make one happen is worth the seconds you save each day when you open the car.

On my SDL, the driver door cartridge went bad, I considered that a keyless system would cost less and be nifty so off I went. I always carred the original door key (different from ignition) as it still worked the passenger door and trunk (sort of on the latter). Would be stupid to be stuck out of your car because your remote battery went out.
It worth every pennies and sweat to install keyless remote. I may be biased. However, it must be a convenient feature most, if not all, new cars have it.
