    Hello All,

    Was just wondering if anyone knew if there is a group buy or a sale for the remote start system from 12volt?

    Black Friday isn’t too far away. Maybe wait until then and see if they have a sale.

    I believe the rep is on this board. He may chime in. I used to have the link to check, but after purchasing it, I deleted it. Great product and the service was 5 stars!

    sure about that? I've heard only the OEM one does that and not this or other aftermarket options.

    I would love to know where you heard that because everything i seen is the opposite. vehicle shuts off when you press the unlock button on the new Toyotas. For what i researched, there is no way around it.

    Not true!
    I have one and can confirm that if you remote start with it, open the door, put key in ignition and turn it, then it won’t turn off. If you put your foot on the brake before putting the key in the ignition, THEN it will turn off.

    I remote start mine with this system, unlock the door, put the key in and it doesn't turn off..... ask those that have this system installed. I'd buy this kit all over again, even if it cost more. Great kit

    With Push button/keyless start. The vehicle will shut off when the door is opened. No way around it yet. I'm sure some egghead is trying to crack that as I write this.

    is shop.tech12volts.com the same as 12volt.soltions? I'm thinking no and some folks here are confusing the two.

    Can you clarify, you had to cut the wire in their loom though right? NOT on the trucks factory loom

    It's been a while but I remember I had to cut the TPMS wire and connect both ends to the remote start unit.

    That was the only cutting of factory wires. I do believe they sell an extra harness if you don't want to do that.

    Hey, quick question (well 2 of them) and hopefully a quick answer. I have the factory remote start (hate it) was installed new in my '16. Is it easy to remove that one and replace with James' version? Anybody done this? Thanks in advance!

    I haven't personally done this but I remember someone else doing this, the same time I was installing mine. I do remember whoever it was didn't have any issues. Maybe they'll chime in here shortly.

    I'm not here for technical advice. Just to point out that it still moves a little when I leave the store and use James' remote start and I can hear Keith's exhaust rumble from the middle of the parking lot.

    True and couldn't agree more! I paired the two up as well and it's a smile and comforting feeling hearing it start up.
