Default Keyless Ignition

Is it possible to retrofit my 2016 F150 XLT with keyless ignition, or it that too costly to even consider?

Cheapest way would probably be to trade up to a new Lariat 502A. And they will throw in the LED headlights for free..

Not sure how to do it with Ford Oem parts but I had looked at advanced keys in the past. It gives you push button start and proximity keyless entry. I want to say it was between $400-500 plus install. I read mixed reviews on it but most were positive.

Probably not.....my truck is only 4 weeks old. I can see thousands of dollars going down the drain.

One reason I was thinking of doing this is that the ignition switch feels as if it was made by Fisher Price. I suppose it is a Ford thing.

That is an impressive kit, first one I have seen with a provided handle that locks and unlocks. I will email the manufacturer to see if they have a 2015 kit.

Can't find anything on Google about the manufacturer, can't even find a website. Only Amazon comes up.

For what its worth too that price isn't bad at all. I'd expect something like this to go for $2000.
