So for whatever reason Ford decided to drop the wireless keypad as a factory option on 2024 Broncos (and many other vehicles, such as the Maverick).

BUT fear not, you can easily add it yourself using FDRS. Info below—

ps. If anyone in the New England area would like their keypad added to their Bronco or Bronco Sport, feel free to PM me.

Wait a second. I thought FDRS was like $600/year or something? You buying me a copy? 😁

If I had FDRS I'd be doing the JBL flash on my radio!

My bad, it's $849/year 😯

That's the old pricing for IDS (Ford's older software for pre-2018 vehicles). FDRS is $50 for a 2-day license.

Considering dealers charge hourly with rates ranging between $80 - $150/hr... $50 for a 2-day license is pretty awesome. Heck even the IDS $150 price is pretty awesome.
