JL Install Proximity Entry AFTER purchase?

[2019RubiconNY]

Hey all, I know there are some threads on here but people comment about how great their remote entry works or how to use it and the topic gets lost in the shuffle.

I am one of many JL owners who wishes they had purchased the keyless remote entry package to be able to jump in their Jeep without pressing buttons or looking for the fob in pocket.

Is there ANY way to get it installed after the purchase, maybe ordering the handles etc from dealership and have them install/program it?

Anyone have feedback on this?

So wait this seems possible with my rubicon because I already have all the antennas etc, I’d need the handles and sales code?

Nobody has successfully done it.

I thought I read a tech say it works but it just took 8hrs of his day to perform it.

You’re correct. I was following rocketscienist who was deep into trying to get it to work, I missed that dctech said he completed it in 8 hours time

So there’s a chance!

Were you able to get this done? If so, did it really take 8 hours. I have a Sahara with Remote start and bought a door Handle with proximity keyless entry. The folks at the dealership have no clue. I was hoping for a plug and play scenario.
