Default Factory Remote Start Question..

I have the bi-directional 100 series remote start on my 2010 F150 XLT,
My question is if and where you can buy a key fob that locks and unlocks the doors and has the remote start on 1 key Fob. rather than having to use 2 key fobs, one to unlock the pickup and 1 to start the pickup.

If there is a key fob out there that will do this where do I buy one!!

Thanks
Brian

because thats the only one that has door lock out put and is the best one to put in the f150 6 button remote.

As stated, the Gold Series RMST/VSS is the only one that combines everything into a single 6 button FOB otherwise you will have 2 FOB's. There is no aftermarket one to replace the Ford FOB's at this time....

My dealer forgot to mention that system???

I like the remote start we have, other than the two different fobs.

Your system is factory installed? If you did it when negotiating the sale or after then you would have probably gotten the 6 button as that isn't factory installed.

bi-directional are not a factory option.
some people have went with the remote in the key like the expeditions and fusions but that's not cheap
bi directional cost the same as the remote start alarm and you get only one remote but the remote start alarm will cost more to install

My bi-directional remote start was dealer installed for $295? No other remote start was mentioned, but I didn't ask either? As I said above, I'm happy with what we have other than the extra fob. I would've spent more for the single fob, but I don't know how much more? How much is the Gold Series installed?
