Questions and advice required about power upgrading(windows & locks) - Toyota Yaris Forums

W.A.S.P · 10-01-2006, 04:42 PM

Hi guys!

Well, I am ready to add power locks/Keyless entry and windows to my Yaris as well as a set of nice front speakers. I have chosen the kits and would like to know if there is anything else that I would need to install them.

The kits are from 1electric:

Power lock/Keyless entry kit: http://www.a1electric.com/Merchant2/...Category_Code=

Power window kit:
http://www.a1electric.com/Merchant2/...duct_Code=Star

Now, I know that I will need a switch for the power locks if I want to operate them from inside the car; but is there anything else that I will need to make this a plug and play installation?
I have no idea if my Yaris comes with the connectors for such kits or if there is something that needs to be done to power up these add ons.
Do I need any other relays or such things or the kits include everything needed?

I'm planning to add an alarm/remote starter before winter hits NY and have to make sure that the keyless entry will be compatible with it as well.

Thanks in advance for any replies to this post. All i need is advice so I can go and hit "buy" on my browser. I would hate to buy the goods and then realize that I'm missing a couple of items.

Thank you all!

I have been going though a similiar ordeal with my local dealer... there is no kit out there to put power locks on all three doors of the liftback, because of the cable lock system

damn i dont know what the american yaris creators are thinking yaris being a new 2006+ model, new body, new style......i dont know why it aint standard in the american models.

I have a 1.5L 3door liftback, with power windows, keyless entry as standard.

Yes hasher, but it will cost me a fortune. Actually, I installed the power lock actuator today and they are very easy to install; I expect the same from the power windows kit, the only thing that I can't figure out is all the electrical stuff. I will try tomorrow and see if I can get into it, if not I will pay someone else to do it(not the dealer). As I said, It is easy, at least the mechanical part(Brackets, mounts etc)
