i agree didn’t get it in my last wrangler and am used to it now and getting the giant key fob out all the time is annoyingMy Grand Cherokee has it and my Wrangler does not. Like you, I was trying to draw the line somewhere. I chose poorly and am now shopping for parts to do the retrofit.
Proximity keyless sounds like something you can live without - but once you get used too it, it's hard to dig out the key fob to unlock.
+1 on this!Take the doors off. You will never need the proximity locks.
Hey, someone had to be the wise guy.
This is how my race car is. I'm daily driving it while I wait on my ordered Ram to come in. It's got basically all the electronics removed, including the receiver for the keyfob inputs. Anyone who walks up to the car to find some stuff to steal on the inside will be sorely disappointed.+1 on this!
However, I very rarely lock my Jeep at all. I have a manual, which is essentially an anti-theft device. Plus, I figure if a thief really wants inside my Jeep when the doors and top are on, they won’t be deterred. I may make myself an easier target, but I don’t keep anything of value in the Jeep…and I don’t want to deal with a broken window or a sliced up soft top.
Don't let that discourage you. We were told 8-10 weeks, but yesterday we got news it is built and headed to dealer with an eta between yesterday and the 15th. Ordered 2/6, so a fairly quick build process for our JLURD.I was told there are several stages once the order is placed.....and apparently I am still in a stage to add or make a changes.....dealer said factory is saying minimum 3 month wait right now too.

Good call!Just added it to my build. Thanks
