Is it possible to get a factory keyless entry and/or remote starter for my 94 SE?
has anyone done this... and is it feasible/cost effective compared to aftermarket?

I agree on that one Dillon. I paid just over $250 for my aftermarket. But I had them wire up the door locks, trunk and my signal flashers as extras to the system.
The factory installed version is going to more.

The factory did not offer a remote starter option, although they're promising those as factory options in the next year or two. I saw a mention of this in the Chicago Tribune a month or so ago.

If you're good at working on automotive electrical systems, you can install the kits yourself in a day or so, but if you're not _really_ confident at wiring and troubleshooting, have an installation place you trust do it for you.
I don't think there'* a whole lot of difference between the kits you can buy over the counter and those that are only available via professional installation, except that the pros probably get a break on the wholesale pricing since they don't need fancy packaging, an installation video and that kind of thing.

(Actually maybe there is, at least for 1993, since on that year and probably some earlier years as well, jumpering the upper-right socket of the ALDL connector to the lower-left socket was how you would program the system. If you do that on your car and its lock system goes *clunk*-*clunk*, you have a keyless-entry system talking to you.)
