Default Remote start install
Has anyone ever installed remote start on their 04-08 themselves? I've been watching YT videos and it doesn't *seem* complicated, but I just wanted to check to see if anyone here has done it themselves.

I don't think remote starts are particularly hard. They get difficult for the average garage mechanic once you want to add alarm features.

Make sure you have two original keys to program the remote start.

I installed a Code alarm remote start/alarm. Nothing out of the ordinary. The wiring diagrams are available online at the12volt.com
