When you walk up to a new corvette with the remote in your pocket it automatically unlocks the doors for you, and then locks them once again when you walk away. I would like to have this feature, although instead of actuating the door locks I'd like the interior lights to come on. How would I accomplish this on another vehicle (non-Corvette)?

Good luck to you - this sounds like a pretty complicated system to me. It woudl have something that woudl sense distance (perhaps by a signal strength) at a set resistance or frequency(s) to trigger something. I'm no electronics expert, but I bet you could find some sort of kit out there somewhere that could be adapted to this? Just look around carefully, and your bound to be able to find something. Let us know how it goes! ------------- /NyxBass

actually the vette remote would use less power by waiting to receive a signal the car generates, then upon reception, sending a reply signal, thus activating the locks
yeah it's pretty much a transponder
