Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the Replacement Remote for Select Viper Remote Start Systems as a great replacement for the original remote start. They appreciate its functionality, ease of use, and convenience, especially during extreme weather conditions. The remote start feature works even better than the manufacturer's remote start. While some customers find the price to be a bit high, many are satisfied with its overall performance and reliability as a backup for their starter system.

    Bought as a gift for my brother. The used truck he bought didn’t come with a transmitter for the remote start. He was able to program it to his truck with some help of online videos. Has decent range too.

    I purchased this to replace a remote that had been lost. Since I had the Remote start originally installed at the store the tech had it up and working in a few minutes. Works just like the original and have no complaints at all.

    Viper is the best auto start system on the market. I still like to have a manual button. If you feel the same, and not want to depend on your phone, this is the best.

    It's a great product and really handy for the hot and cold mornings. I can just press the start button without going to the window and it connects.

    I brought this replacement remote because the ones that came with the remote start had a small hard to press button. This has a larger button that is easy to press.

    I bought a used car that has a remote start system already in it but it did not come with a remote. This little guy was a great replacement and works great!

    The Vipersat remote start system installed in my vehicle a year ago only came with one remote, so bought this as a second remote. Was hoping that I'd be able to program it myself, but the switch was installed in a location I couldn't get to. The Best Buy auto tech told me that he does that on purpose to keep people from accidently messing up the system and voiding their warranty. Seeing as I could've done that if something went wrong when doing it myself, I was glad he did it that way. Cost me another $30 for them to program it for me, but well worth in to know it was done professionally. Has worked perfectly.

    I was relieved when I found out that they actually sell replacement remotes for the remote start instead of having to take it in. It was very easy to program as well.

    Having a back remote is crucial if the other dies for can’t be found in moments you need to start you car before you leave.
