How much of a pain would it be to have an aftermarket remote start with keyless entry installed. When I had my system installed, the guys doing it made it sound like a major pain in the butt. Has anybody done this yet? thanks, chris

 

it can be pretty ugly especially if you have a manual,

i am dealing with an issue right now where the shopped tripped the airbag light. they are paying to have it taken care of but it is not fun to deal with.

find someone who is experienced in mercedes wiring, drive the extra distance if you have to. make sure it is warranted for life.

you will need a bypass module to tap into the car, xpresskits sells one, or you could use a universal and loose one of your keys.

universal: $50
xpress: $125

 

that is kinda what I was thinking. thanks for the heads up. chris

 

wanted to take the one out of my work car and put in the srt and my guy told me would be difficult and expensive

 

I thought I would do that as well, but after the shop here scratched their heads, I said, well maybe will do the Mazda instead....left the XF alone....
