    Hey boss,
    Im thinking aout picking up one of your remote starts. Is there a way to bypass it shutting the truck off when ever you open a door? Whydoes toyota do this? Ive got a stock system on my 4runner and it drives me crazy how much i have to restart the truck
    Thanks
    Vandy

    Sorry, no bypass, you still have to restart the truck.

    IT doesn't bother me at all. I just sit down, put my foot on the brake, and hit the button. Nice and easy.

    Its more of an unneeded wear on the started for me. But remote start is nice, even more so when its -5 out and ive been outside all night working

    The truck shutting off when the door is opened can not be bypassed, this is built into the truck by toyota. It only leaves the option of starting the truck a second time or going out in the cold and starting it and then going back inside while it warms up.

    I debated this a lot before KB Voodoo even started selling the remote start. After seeing them start selling it at a great price I decided the wear was worth it for a warm truck. I absolutely love it after installing it last week.
