Can I install a keyless entry keypad on my 2009 XLT?
I was very disappointed to find out my new ford didn't come with the keypad that I've learned to love on my other F-150's. Is this something I can install myself or do I really need to pay my ford dealer $100 to install it? Here is the link:

Thanks SSCULLY. So what exactly is RKE? I have a key fob with a lock, unlock, and alarm button on it. Is that RKE?

That IS remote keyless entry. I believe all XLT's should come standard with it. What you referenced is the stick on keypad. It simply takes the place of what you have in your hand (unless you locked 'em in your truck.) Please tell me the Ford dealer didn't want $100. to INSTALL those. You do realize all you do is peel the liner off the back and stick 'em on the door. About 1 min. for both of 'em.

Yep, they wanted $185 total. Has anyone tried installing one? Will the adhesive back actually keep the keypad in place through car washes, bad weather, etc.?
I'm always afraid of locking my baby in the car on accident and I never had to worry about it in my old ford. I guess I could put a hide-a-key on the truck and get the same results...hmmm.
