Yeah, nobody ever looks there! Oldest and dumbest 'hidden' location ever!
Ok, I have a better idea, stick your keypad out on the door. In plain sight, where they usually are.
It's a freaking keypad, with a secret keycode, what is wrong with you?

Getting back on topic. I had this key made at the local locksmith. It's hidden under the truck in a magnetic case should the keypad fail and my phone is locked inside with the key fob. I like redundancy! My "ugly" keypad is mounted on the driver door, to each his own. :like:

The door keypad is on my list of changes to my Ranger. The IA key would be nice too but I didn't want a Lariat. I do have one of those magnetic keyholders too. Usually one of the earliest additions to a new to me vehicle.

Where it can look dumb, and is in the sun and dust/rain all the time

I ordered mine with the option fully knowing it was removable

Shit you can place it anywhere

Mine worked from 50 feet away

Gas caps are more than just a good spot for a keypad. Mad business can be done out of a location like that
