So for awhile now I wanted a remote start for my SX Koup 6 speed. Problem is you have to bypass the clutch to start the motor. I have read story from other forums and even some of our fellow members here have had instances where the car was left into gear and the car lurched forward or backwards because it was left in gear.
Well I finally gave in and had one installed. To my surprise they were able to alleviate this worry that I had. I purchased the Autopage C3 rs1100 two way remote start and alarm system.
C3-RS1100 OLED - 2-Way Communications - AutoPage
After taking twelve hour to install I was ecstatic to get this thing working and try it out. Well the remote start works like a charm, have the option of remote starting and having it set to start a certain times in the morning. Showing me the current temperature in the car. Its also modular you can add components to control your windows and what not.
The alarm system is great, accidently set it off while working on the car and closed the hood while the car was armed and the shock of the hood closing tripped the sensor. One of the great things is that the remote system will not start if the car is in gear. The alarm system will engage and disengage but the remote start will not until the car is taken out of gear.
There is a lot this system will do and since I have it for only a little while I am still learning the system but to anyone who is tech savvy nothing like playing with the key fob to learn the cool things this thing can do.
If anyone is interested I can create a quick video showing these functions, see the remote start, alarm system and controls the parking lights. Coming soon are the window modules to control the front windows during the summer months when things finally warm up.
