So let me get this straight. You start with a $35 remote starter kit, add another $35 worth of parts. Pay for a cell phone plan, or pay-go.


For a car that every telemarketer in the world can start.

Except bluetooth rarely gets to 10 meters before it loses its connection.

Haha, I knew you were going to go there...
What I meant to say is that Class 1 range is rarely 10m (more like 5mts). Which BTW I don't mind at all (5 mts is pretty much perfect for opening the car up).
