Handy where you are too. *Nice to have the AC going for a few minutes before

Remote Starters: "but for $150 you can get one installed"

Where are you getting a remote starter installed for $150? Don't
believe the price in the ads.

By the time you either add in the bypass module or the extra key that
has to be hidden under the dash and the other "extras" that are always
needed, I doubt you'll spend less than $225. The next time you see an
ad for $150, call them and get the complete details - bypass modules,
key fobs, horn relays, etc - and see if it's still $150.

I've bought enough of them over the years that people ask me how much
they can expect to spend. I tell them to call and get the total cost
and they always come back and tell me I'm right - $225 to $250 is just
about where everyone ends up.

BTW - It's well worth the money on days like today when the overnight
lows are below 5 degrees.
