Keyless Entry Possible?

[lowrider]

I just got a 2011 Silverado WT with the LS package - Regular Cab, Long Bed. It has the SEO package (power windows, locks, and mirrors) which includes 5B5 and AU3. Can a vehicle with these codes be programmed for keyless entry? If the VIN will help it's 1GCNCPEA8BF136108. If possible, what should it cost? Thanks.

No Responses All the dealers I called said it can't be done. Somehow I just don't believe them, but, I'll be going with an aftermarket solution. Why anyone automotive builder would build a vehicle with power door locks and no keyless entry is beyond me

lowrider: did you ever get this installed? I have 09 silverado ls with au3 and 5b5 and was wondering how much this option cost to add. Thanks.

[lowrider]

^^^^ Yes, I had my local electronics store add an Auto Page system. The most expensive part of the system was the interface module to the GM system. It cost more than the security system module. Anyway my system with three remotes, tax and labor to install came to $227.69. I like the system a lot. One of it's features is if you lock the doors with the remote and try to unlock with the key or the buttons on the doors it sets off the alarm (horn starts honking). Also I can unlock only one door or both doors from the fob. Again, I like it.

 

Also, the tech that installed it, did not look at any instructions. It appeared he had done this many times before. It took him less than 20 mins.
