My brother has a 2012 lincoln mkx that I drove last week. It has keyless start and I was wondering if the lincoln setup could be used in our raptors ?

Also liked the grated steering wheel

Noah and a couple others can explain this better but the integration of a system like that would be somewhat extreme. Door handles, sensors, push button start, etc.

integration and programming would be a very difficult and expensive task. the issue is with the raptor not having the proper electronics to power up by just having the key close. the push button starts activate through latched circuits where the key cylander works off momentary.

and then getting a new key made for the truck that has the same frequency and range as the push button vehicles too.

^So Noah... the real question is:

Under $3K or not? If so, definitely in. F- having keys in my hand for some fool to try and do a running grab, not that they would get farther than 15ft but still... looking to be lazy here.
