Wondering what I need to do to find a remote start and install it? Do I need a plug adapter for it to work with my car?

Hi,

Remote start systems are available aftermarket and can be purchased in many places. Here is the thing that I tell friends. It must be properly installed to prevent shorts. I've seen a few car fires resulting from improper installation or simply an inferior/faulty part.

Once you get the system, it needs to be wired into the ignition system. I can't tell you exactly what will need to be done because they are all different. Regardless, the new system should provide a wiring schematic showing how it's installed.

I will try my best to help if you purchase one.

Let me know.

Joe
