2025 Ranger XLT
Is it possible / worth replacing the wiring harness for the XLT to add IA for the XLT. I know I would need to have the BCM reprogrammed to enable this, and get new fobs. I would need to add the console antenna and door handles with IA antennas, push to start hardware too. Can anyone supply the parts list for a 2025 XLT Ranger compared to the Lariat to see what specific parts I would need. Any help on what specifically would need to be enabled on ForSCAN programming.

Have you considered trading your truck? I'd say unless you can get paint matched handles and hardware from a junkyard you're going to be in over $5,000.

I did find one post but they used a hack system that bypasses the factory anti-theft. I suppose it could work but you have to cut one of your keys off and leave it in the truck so the aftermarket kit can trigger the starter relay.
