8 speaker stereo system and OEM keyless entry Options

[Xander_X]

Just trying to figure some things out. I'm just recently purchased my first 6th gen and I've been doing my research as to what factory options were available here in the US and other countries. At one point, I think it might have been on Edmunds, they asked which stereo system I had. One of the options was an 8 speaker stereo system. My '99 GT has the 6 speaker. Does anyone have this 8 speaker system or know of it's existence?

I also wanted to know if anyone had a factory OEM keyless entry system on their Celica or if it was offered. I haven't seen it as an option anywhere. I'd like to get one as I'm not a fan of the aftermarket one that came in it. I have to be like 10 feet away and then it only works like 9 times out of 10 on the first attempt.

Hi, all, don't mean to zombify this thread, but I'm trying to dig up my own info before starting a new thread. Didn't see anything directly answering in the stickies, either.

I'm looking to add an OEM remote lock receiver to my '97 ST. I gather it's a black box located under the driver's seat. I don't really care about the alarm one way or the other, but I'd like to have remote locks.

Does anybody know if the wiring harness already includes a plug for this, or is it an add-on to the base chassis harness? I've done this twice in Subarus - the '97 needed a receiver and a special subharness pigtail, whereas the '02 already had the connector waiting and just needed the receiver unit. I'm wondering which way the Celica is.

Also, anybody know of one for sale? Thanks for any info.
