since i could not find a detailed topic about it, i am going to talk about it now.
as you might have known, i had my bimmer up for sale, and bought a focus....... 1 week later, i sold the focus, and kept the BMW... haha ( similar situation happened with a girlfriend, lasted one week.. haha)
anyway, i had bought a remote start for the focus, and i plan on installing it in the bimmer.. did anyone attempt this, and what issues did you run into when installing it, if any. it should be straight forward enough, if BMW was like any other car, but i am hesitate, and wanted a heads up.
i have a 98 318ti with a security package (alarm and keyless entry). it should be a hack and splice job, but i know one time when a friend was doing it on a Jetta, adding a remote start would make the window wipers turn on and off after starting..he is also a professional, and installed about 50ish or more remote starts now. i came later, and helped him trace every wire, had the entire dash off, and nothing.. nothing was wired wrong, something with the computer not liking the remote start (the remote start worked fine btw)
anyway, i already bought the transponder bypass to get around the key issue at the ignition, and i have a manual remote starter.
so, my question is, are there any problems with it, like does the BMW reject them or is it alright? my friend said he did it in a very limited number of BMWs and said it should be alright for most models.
any tips would also be greatly appreciated.
anyway,
this also gives me a chance to install more speakers, and check on the old ones, and maybe run wires for 3rd amp.. since the interior is going to be removed anyway. .. as of now, i have 18.1 speakers. when i do this, i will be adding 8 more infinity speakers, probably in the back.. haha.. thats going to be 26.1 speakers.. haha =] happy happy holidays.
its compensation, not going to lie.. haha
.. also, if i think about it, i will post a DIY when i am done..
