as far as security, you could always rap the wires in a flexible steal tubing and thro in some fake wires to keep people guessing. Just secure the keypad with in the center/dash and it will take just as much effort as if you need the key.
The key pad cost 212$, and it is made by IEI. The pad is IEI 232SE Indoor / Outdoor Surface-Mount Weather Resistant Keypad. Look for it in google.com shopping to get the best prices. Some are trying to sell it for over 400$.
Nice idea but it isn't really secure. I work in security & i know a few of those keypads.
You never want the cable you are securing to be accessible.You said the ignition wire is going trough the box, & you need a code to access it. Good idea, but whats stopping someone from just... reattaching them outside the box? or even opening the box?. You want a keypad with a separate relay. So you have keypad -> encoded signal, not just NC or NO -> Relaybox -> cable. still nice video :)
No you cant hotelse it because the keypad is only a complement to the regular key... You still need a physical key with the right electronic code. It's just there to prevent hijackings. And key snatches.
@shanetalbert Thanks man. The key pad now does more functions in the car. I.e. It starts the car. Kepps it running without the keys and controlls my head lights
Relay "Closed" for ten seconds...

You should isolate the keypad from the rest of the electronics, much more secure.

Doesn't look very plausible. The keypad should be isolated from everything else, anyone could figure that out.

It's good that it has braille on it, in case a blind person wants to drive your car.
