Hey Scott,

Seeing as I have installed an OEM alarm which added factory keyless entry as well which remote starter what would you recommend that I use for a remote starter? I'd like to continue to use the Toyota remotes.

I would also prefer to use home made neutral safety switch so that I don't have to perform a sequence of steps every time I park the car. Do you have any suggestions on the switch that I use as well?

On a side note I would like to install the TRD push button start as well down the line even if that means I have to put in my car and turn the car to on. Do you for see any issues having both remote start and push button start. Seem to me that you wouldn't but some of the wiring for the remote start and push button start may tie into some of the same locations.

Thank you for all the excellent help here on Yaris World!

To add remote start, whereby you can still use your Toyota remotes, I would recommend the Valet 561T (which allows you to use your door lock signal as the remote start trigger.)

For the neutral safety input, I haven't installed remote start on a standard. In doing a bit of web research on the topic I've seen people create things as simple as an array of springs surrounding the shift lever (so that a ground connection is made if the shift lever is moved out of the neutral position).

The push start shouldn't have an impact on the remote starter. They would indeed share some connection points.

Anyone ever try installing a Avital 4113 starter in a Yaris? This was the only one button starter I could find locally and I need it by Wednesday (girlfriend's birthday).

It's a DEI product, so it should be decent. I just read through the install guide for it and It should be very straight forward with my DIY.
