Great sense of accomplishment for sure
Easy to install & was able to keep my (homemade) push start too (was not about to buy/pay for a new ignition switch Ford was not standing behind as many have been failing and they should have had a recall to offer a free fix this is my own opinion.So sorry back to my review. Love how you can just jumper into system with fitting connectors and without having to splice in wiring, that was a smart idea. Would buy again and suggest this to others. I did have a very minor problem but was my own fault while trying to program. I did not get the 3 bongs when turning the key because I did not have one of a connector fully seated in the steering column as soon as I did realize was not getting the "Bongs" I fully seated the connector and I got both keys programmed first attempt but before I noticed the problem I tried about 4 times so I for sure had my practice. Anyways listen for the bongs just wanted to mention so it may help another person out. Also want to point out to pay attention how you remove the panels. The lower steering column wrap around panel was giving me a problem figuring out how to re-install with the steering adjuster which goes in (through) first or while you are re-installing the panel. The lower panel below the steer column, at the very bottom of the panel it is hinged in that is after the top is pooped out the bottom swings down and the out so do not try to pop out the bottom let the top swing down a bit and then remove. I actually ordered the unit and the night before it was to come in had everything ready all the panels off and my tools lined up which were not many needed at all for this job.

Easy installation, short harnesses
It is super easy to install. Once I got the proper panels removed with just the 3 5.5mm bolts, plug a few things in, programming was simple. Putting the panels back on the steering wheel was a pain in the butt but after I cut back some of the housing and was able to move the one plug on the left back, I was finally able to get it back together.

Super easy installation, flawless operation
Installed this kit in a 2012 Ford Escape. With the included factory harness, was a very straight forward process. Just have to remove trim panel below steering wheel, and the shroud around the steering wheel which is held in by 3x 5.5mm bolts. Once that is done, everything is just like the description says, plug and play. Since all of the connectors on the harness are keyed, there is no guess work. They only fit where they are supposed to go. Programming was a breeze and everything worked for me the first time with no issues what so ever. You really can't beat it for the price. You could pay more for a viper or compustar kit, but those don't come with model specific harness. Really a no brainer if you're looking for functionality and ease of install. The only things I didn't like is that the instructions could be a little more clear. There was a lot of unused connectors on the harness that weren't mentioned in the instructions that made it kind of confusing to connect at first. Also, I would have liked to have an option to get a two way kit without upgrading to the smartphone module.

This works
Husband bought because the key would not go into the ignition anymore so instead of replacing the ignition he installed this. Starts his car from inside the house now. Best product ever!

It works
I'm stupid so it took mor time than it should have to install it. But it really is plug and play,no wire splicing. If I had to do it again it is really a half hour job yo install. Range is as far as your fob will lock, unlock.
