Remote car starter possible?

..........Is it possible to install a remote car starter into a post-2000 Mercedes? If yes, anyone know who can do this?

No. There is no way you could make it work because of the stupid new key.

Retrofit a Keyless Go, leave the card in the glovebox. Then install a commercial remote switch to "push the button" on the gearshift.

Has anyone had the keyless-go option added on to their car? I drive a 03 clk500 and would love that option. Also I believe the current keyless-go is different/better than the one available on my car in 03..... Will the new version work on my 03?

Ted,

I wrote about this earlier and it is not possible to retrofit a remote starter without comprimising the security features of the vehicle. The only remote start feature you can add is a stationary heating system which will heat the block of the engine and heater core with a remote gas fired heater. All OEM parts. All Mercedes. Total integration. Here is a link of some more info on that unit I installed in my car. http://web.mac.com/drsunilpatel/iWeb/Site/STH%20.html Let me know if I can answer any questions for you.
