i was wondering if anyone has ever tried a keyless entry on these cars? I just purchased a universal one and should be installing it soon.

Antoinette has keyless entry. I know nothing about it though, as it came with the car.
I will say, though, it's a pain in the ass, as the doors lock automatically when the ignition is on.

The door lock actuators have to be replaced with the units recommended in the kit, and you need to to a BIT of wiring work, otherwise should be pretty straightforward.

oh, yeah. HUGE PITA!! Start the car and realize you forgot something you have to shut the car off, or fight with the actuators (very, very stiff!) to get the door open. We have actually locked the keys in the car 3-4 times. Start the car in the morning, run back in the house to get ready for work, come out to find the car running and the doors locked! WTF?
I plan on disconnecting the actuators this coming month.....
