I fear I made a mistake in my options selection in not ordering the proximity door locks, is that something that can be purchased after market?

No it’s not, I do really enjoy the proximity option though.... if you think you really want it change your order now and don’t regret it later.

No, can not be added later. Sure if you are very wealthy, then anything is possible..

Following this thread. I wouldn't think this is impossible to do aftermarket, just maybe not cheap. My current car has this feature and the driver door button went out requiring replacement under warranty. They basically replaced the door handle, which leads me to believe most of the hardware is in the door handle. I would think swapping the doors out and a software update would get it working but thats a total guess.

Do cars with passive entry have any extra wires in the harness that you disconnect when removing the doors?

Unfortunately I have already taken delivery on the vehicle.

You would probably be looking at 1000 plus in parts, labor to install, another 150-200 to reflash system..... I can push the fob button.:)

Yeah, been thinking about this a little more, also, if you have the Sirius Guardian System, I realized I can just unlock and start the car from my phone and bypass the whole proximity thing...
