This mod pack aims to change a few things about DayZ Expansion
This is made specifically for servers that run Expansion Bundle and Community Online Tools. If you'd like to modify it for your own use, feel free.
Vehicle Locks
Gets rid of the need for Vehicle Keys and ties each vehicle to its owner. Already existing vehicles with Keys will automatically migrate to this new system without needing a wipe. Anyone in the owners group can access the vehicle. Makes Expansion Keys just usable to claim unowned vehicles, but can make any item configurable as a claim item, or no item. Up to you. Admins with COT active can lock/unlock and reset ownership of any vehicle.
Virtual Garage
Works with the new Locks system, only players that can access a vehicle can store it. Anyone in the owners group can store/retrieve a vehicle. Real 3d preview of the vehicle. List of vehicles cargo. Option to auto repair on storing. Can set any object you want to act as the garage entity. Admins with COT active can store/retrieve any vehicle. If an Admin stores a vehicle, it will still be retrievable by the owner. So if your players have blocked up the trader, you can store their vehicles for them.
Market UI

Vehicle Markers
When you get out of any vehicle, it creates a 3d map marker on the vehicle. Marker is only created for the Driver. Marker is automatically deleted upon re-entering the vehicle.
Setup
If using Vehicle Locks Set "VehicleRequireKeyToStart" from 1 to 0 in /profiles/ExpansionMod/Settings/VehicleSettings.json If using Virtual Garage Set "Enabled" from 1 to 0 in /profiles/ExpansionMod/Settings/GarageSettings.json then put the classname/s of your Garage Objects in "GarageAccessObjects" (replacing "DV_Parking") in /profiles/BDE/BDE_Virtual_Garage/settings.json
Requirements
Community Online Tools Expansion Bundle
It also uses Stalker Light and Effects for lighting inside the Vehicle Preview Hangar. It's not a hard dependant but I'd recommend it, plus it's repackable.
