So I will be picking up my new LC this coming Friday and driving her home. One of the first things that I would like to do to her is add a remote start seeing as the last couple weeks we have not had more than one day that was above 40* at highest.
From what it seems like, Compustar seems to be one of the better brands that has consistent reviews regardless of what forum, video, etc. However, with the wave of technologic advancements, the addition of companies like DRONE Mobile has me wondering if anyone has had one installed in a vehicle that didn't already have one.
This will mainly be used during the winter to warm the truck up while I am getting ready to leave for work seeing as my drive time is less than 15 minutes and only about 3 miles. During the warmer months I ride my bike to work so not a huge deal there but now when there is snow on the ground or ice I tend not to ride and drive. This will also be a "feeler" for adding one to my wife's '11 4Runner as she normally leaves her salon late at night and when there is snow on the ground or it is cold out it would be nice to have her have the ability to start it from within the salon (less than 200yds away) and warm it up while she is finishing things up.
Anyone have any "gotchas" that they can share from installation. Friend of the families owns a truck accessories shop so I will use them to do the install and they are an authorized Compustar/DRONE dealer.
