Sounds interesting. So is this the best way to install an alarm with Remote Start? As long as the car can't be stolen while the remote start is 'on' HmMm i wonder what the local shop will say about your key idea

You cant get ripped off with the stock system

Toyota has put a chip inside the stock system so IF your system was removed some how, they wont be able to reactivate it without a code (which the dealer will give you). This discouarages future attempts against the tC.
