finally got a bike hauler, 2015 2wd but-

I didn't realize the baseline model has no remote to lock/unlock the doors..

Possible to buy one and program it, as with many cars these days? Prefer OEM but whatever.. other than this little oversight, liking the truck alot so far. Soon a camping trip to borrego I'm thinking..

 

Welcome aboard

 

The keyless entry is nice, worth the coin to have it installed

Welcome!

 

Welcome to TW!!

Call your local stereo shop: Aftermarket alarm system and door lock modules.

 

The truck won't just accept an OEM one...?

 

Bump.. Can't just add an OEM remote door unlock?

 

Hmm... It should, to my knowledge. Maybe head down to your dealership and see what they can do? I have no remote, I just stick the key in every time and manually lock. Didn't get an SR5 so I don't even think it'd be possible for me to get a remote but a friend has suggested I go to my dealership. Maybe that would work for you, worth a shot!

EDIT: Re-read your post. Sounds like you may not have an SR5, like me. An SR5 is basically an upgraded package on a regular tacoma. Has power locks, power windows, and stuff like that. I'd still see what the dealership says. If not, keyless entry and things of that nature can be installed for a pretty fair price!

 

Yep same deal, got baseline Tacoma cuz its the one lowest to the ground for loading up the bike..

Power locks and windows. Just no remote. Strange..

Surely an OEM can be added, I'm thinking.

 

haha ignore all that, after 5 months i went back and traded my very, very baseline 4cyl 2wd for a TRD with quickshifter, entune and tow package etcetc.

just thought id go ahead and make this post cuz with my luck at some point someone would be like hey, arent you one of the guys with the new 4cyl? and id be like well, see, what happened was..

=D
