Who has done a remote start? - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

(see above)

Which system did you go with and why? Did you do the install or did you take it somewhere? If you took it somewhere, how was the experience / cost?

I am looking to do this as my next upgrade and would like to hear some opinions.

Thanks!

yup agreed! They wont install on a manual car. Gotta find a shop your friends with or install yourself.

MuddyREX · 12-04-2005, 08:49 PM

I'd PM WKderf. He is a wizard with that kind of stuff, and he put a remote start into his 5spd WRX.

teh DIRT · 12-04-2005, 08:51 PM

3 outa my four doors had motors in them, so all they had to do was run a wire from the alarm to a motor they put it the drivers door.

2point4DSM · 12-04-2005, 09:26 PM

There are shops that can install remote starts in manual cars but it requires rigging up a laser sensor or something so the remote start brain can see if the car is in gear or not.

WKderF · 12-05-2005, 01:13 AM

remote starts on manual cars are NOT illegal, its just an insurance risk so most shops dont install them. pm or IM me and i can give you some direction as to the cost and advantages to some of the products out there.
