Topic: 06 Remote start, What Kind?

[Donnie1]

Anybody put a remote start on an 06 yet?

I'll do any wiring except for remote starters, however the last few cars I've used the Astrostart.  It has 1500' + range, 2 way, low voltage and temperature capibility, in addition to that I can also keep it running and remove the keys from the ignition.

DEI. Python 871XP. Its the only remote start/keyless/alarm/window module, etc. I will use. I've had one on 3 cars now and soon to have one on the AV. I love them.

Are they hard to wire up? Sucks that they didn't offer this on the 06 Av.

They aren't bad at all. I've done quite a few.

Does this system's Fob work the doors as well or will I need to use 2 fobs?

I had mine set up to do door locks, windows up and down, remote start, and hatch pop on the Blazer.

isn't there a GM retro fit for the 06's?

Some are pre-wired some are not. The ones that are not...its easier to buy an aftermarket. Most GM alarms/remote starts are made by DEI anyway.

I talked to the parts dept and they said the 06 Av's did not come wired for it and that you had to go aftermarket.
