Q: It states there could be anywhere from $10 to $300 extra for parts and labor. Was wondering if anybody has run into this?

A: Yes Best Buy DID NOT honor the "installation included" on the order form. They wanted an extra $200+ to install in my 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan. I ordered online and made an appointment at the Trumbull store for the "Included Installation". Upon arriving they refused to do the install at that appointment and wanted the extra money. The next available appointment was FIFTY day into the future! I spoke with the manager to no avail. I returned the remote starter for a refund. Very poor way to do business Best Buy!!!

Q: Can the remote that comes with this be used in place of the key that came with my car?

A: The remote can be used to lock and unlock the door as well as start the vehicle. The key must be used to put in the ignition on position for the vehicle to keep running once the brake is engaged.

    Best auto start with really far signal transmissio

    Patience pays off. First when I went to get it installed at Bestbuy the first day, they couldn’t figure it out how to get it to work and after 6 and a half hour, the technician suggested that they will do a refund to me. Somehow I knew that the remote start module should work with my 2016 Mazda 3 because I’ve done some research and watch videos on YouTube. Rescheduled my appointment and told them to get another replacement and they figured it out the next visit. It’s been working like a charm. The remote start FOB truly can cover a LONG distance. My original key FOB works as a remote auto start too. Really happy with the item.

    AWESOME AUTO STARTER ADD ON

    I was looking for an auto starter on my 2022 audi q7. Research between this and compustar and ultimately decided to spend a little more for this unit. Idata has 2 - two way remote with a 6000 feet range. You can also use your factory oem key fob to start. Compustar CS4905S-KIT has 1 - two way and 1 - one way with a range of 3000 feet Bestbuy installer knew what he was doing and was very professional with the install.

    Great!

    These are great quality and I really like the two way remote to confirm my car has started! You do have to have two car keys with chips in them for this to be programmed
