Converting an alarm system

Wondering if anyone's done this, prefer to stick with a factory type alarm, the truck is a basic XLT with just the basic power options (windows/locks/mirrors) thats pretty much it no keyless entry with alarm. And want an alarm in it with the keyless entry. How hard is it to convert it to keyless with the alarm?

Just get a kit off eBay or go to a1electric.com. A lot of guys on here, including myself have installed aftermarket keyless entry kits. Just get the unit that has the alarm included, it should be the same thing wiring wise, just wiring up the alarm unit as well.
