    We're always our own worst critics. The vid does a good job of showing how to access the area and what's involved in getting to the various connections. That's the big thing that'll be on most people's minds.

    Interesting that you took the PTS from the ECU rather than the start button. One less thing to dig out. :thumbsup:

    Yeah its much easier. The surrounding of the start button is extremely thin and could easily snap. Not to mention the harness going to the button is super tight

    To those of you who ordered please be aware that due to snow, the shipment has been delayed. I should have the remote starts in today or tomorrow.

    Also those of you who ordered for the Highlander the video should cover you but test your wires just to be sure. If you have any questions ask me

    I think the video is great! Best part is its that easy to install. Took me to time at all. Only problem is the wire want a remote start now. Being i dont have a simple solution like this i took to a install shop to get a quote Saturday..... they want $375.00 for a one button that only unlocks the door when its running :(

    She said thats nuts so were not gonna do it.

    Video pushed me over the edge, I just ordered it. Its getting cold in the NE and this would be great. I did a Compustar remote start on the wifes Mazda CX-5 with push button start and it needed a separate key fob, PITA because it only unlocks the car sometimes, othertimes I have to shut off car and use factory keyless entry.Looking forward to installing it. When the truck starts the DRL's light up right?

    Also keep in mind the paper directions have all the wiring colors and such. I just did the video to show how easy it was and locations

    The video will be a huge help with the install. I do 99% of all mods on my vehicles, videos make it easier. Hopefully all goes well.

    Oh, I see. I hadn't fully caught up on the thread yet. I ordered through the site, assuming you had something to do with them.

    @KB Voodoo do you have an eta on the orders?
