Keyless Entry Retrofit for Jaguar & Land Rover
Leave your key in your pocket or bag and let your vehicle recognise you the moment you approach. Our genuine keyless entry retrofit adds effortless, factory‑spec passive entry to your Jaguar or Land Rover, unlocking the doors as soon as you touch the handle and locking them again with a single press. Everything operates exactly as the engineers intended — because we use only authentic JLR parts and dealer‑level coding.
Seamless Convenience, Every Day
Keyless entry removes the need to reach for your key fob, making every journey smoother and more refined. The system senses the fob’s unique signal and authenticates your presence before you even lift a finger. A gentle touch of the capacitive sensor on the door handle unlocks the vehicle; a second touch locks it securely. You never press a button on the remote again, yet your vehicle remains protected by the same sophisticated immobilisation and encryption that JLR builds into every model.
This upgrade suits any driver who values fluid movement, whether you regularly carry shopping, children, or work equipment. You experience a moment of calm every time you walk up to your car — it simply opens for you.
Factory‑Precision Hardware, Not Universal Add‑ons
Our retrofit replicates the exact specification JLR offers from the factory. We install the genuine Keyless Vehicle Module (KVM), dedicated low‑frequency antennas inside the doors and rear bumper, and new exterior handles with integrated capacitive sensors. The wiring follows the vehicle’s original loom paths, clipped into factory positions and protected by the same conduit. No universal control boxes, no spliced wires, and no compromise on reliability.
The components talk to your vehicle via the secure CAN‑bus network, maintaining the full integrity of the anti‑theft system. Because we use only manufacturer‑approved parts, your vehicle’s warranty remains unaffected and the installation remains completely invisible from the outside.
Vehicle Compatibility
We retrofit keyless entry on a wide range of Jaguar and Land Rover models that already feature keyless start (push‑button ignition) and a compatible body control architecture. Typical candidates include:
- Range Rover Evoque (L551), Velar (L560), and Sport (L494 / Dynamic)
- Land Rover Discovery Sport (L550) and Discovery 5 (L462)
- Jaguar E‑Pace, F‑Pace (X761), I‑Pace, XE, and XF
We verify every vehicle by VIN before booking to confirm the correct module variant, handle configuration, and trim level. If your car meets the technical criteria, we guarantee a flawless, factory‑matching result.
What the Retrofit Involves
Our JLR‑certified technicians complete the conversion in a single day, either at our workshop or via our mobile fitting service. The process includes:
- Removing the door cards and fitting the new keyless handles with integrated antennas, re‑using your existing painted caps or supplying colour‑coded items as needed.
- Mounting the KVM module in its designated factory bracket and connecting it to the vehicle’s main harness via the correct plug‑and‑play terminals.
- Installing additional antennas in the rear bumper area to cover the tailgate and boot opening zone.
- Coding the vehicle with genuine JLR diagnostic equipment. This step activates the passive entry menu on your touchscreen, configures the KVM to your specific VIN, and synchronises all new components with the immobiliser and central locking.
- Performing a full system health check and testing every door handle, the tailgate release, and the security lock‑out to ensure perfect operation.
Complete Integration With Your Vehicle’s Systems
After coding, keyless entry appears seamlessly in your Pivi Pro or InControl Touch Pro display. You can enable and disable the feature, adjust the lock‑confirmation flash, and control walk‑away locking (where supported) — all through the same menus as a factory‑built vehicle. The system responds instantly to your touch and locks automatically if you walk away without pressing the handle, reinforcing security without any effort from you.
Your existing key fobs work without modification, and the vehicle continues to recognise up to eight paired keys. Over‑the‑air software updates and dealer servicing remain fully compatible; the diagnostic tools read the new module and all related fault codes just like any other JLR component.
Rediscover the Joy of Effortless Motoring
Keyless entry does more than add a convenience feature — it changes the way you interact with your car. The simple, elegant action of touching a handle and sliding into the seat sets a tone of calm control that lasts the whole journey. Our customers report that the retrofit makes their vehicle feel newer, more prestigious, and infinitely more user‑friendly.
Trust LR‑Retrofit to deliver this transformation with meticulous care, genuine parts, and deep technical expertise. We handle everything, from pre‑installation checks to the final demonstration of every function, so you drive away with total confidence.
