Garage door opener hack

I get what you are saying about the key now and yes that would provide a little more security but for me the car is always in the garage so you would have had to access my garage already to use the always powered remote so I guess it would be a moot point lol. I find popping off the part of the dash that has the switch is really easy, it just pops off and I bought a tiny remote so its right behind there no digging around for it. I see how some people have the home link, but I feel this is a much easier option? It could easily be wired to the car if you wanted constant power, and or a keyed system. Keep us posted on how this works out for you. This just seems like more of a factory look to me over the home link.
Home link vs small garage opener. Find my home link.

Not sure who you are asking. I did the hack on the side of the console in the Metropol Blue interior (2003 C2) using a home link I pulled from a sun visor about 7 years ago, post 9
8 or 10 years ago LVDell (I think?) posted the Targa switch hack.
When I got my 2004 I first used a surface mount Cadillac home link in the cubby. It took up 1/3 of the space.
Then I saw Franny's DIY so I bought a Targa switch hooked it to my Homelink tucked him a foam beer cozy and tossed it behind the cubby. Posts 16,17,18.
