1g Keyless entry - March 05, 2013 11:36 pm UTC
Alright, I have installed one of those generic keyless entry set-ups for my 1g. The doors have been upgraded with actuators and the aftermarket brain will be in the cabin.
The question I have is: Is there a way to use the existing door connections to wire up the actuators to the aftermarket unit for keyless entry? By this I mean, inside the door resides a 3 prong connection in both doors for that effect, obviously made for the OEM keyless system. It has power and ground, as well, I'm guessing, a switch wire for unlock/lock.
Where is the relay for this OEM switch and can it be used with the aftermarket unit. If so how and which wire?
I've read this:

some others but that's the main ones. I can get it to work with the aftermarket unit only but getting those wires through the door and dash is a pain and figured using stock harnesses made for it would probably be easier and look better.
