Remote start on '12 CLS63?

Is it possible? I want it for the hot summers down here in Alabama. Already hitting 85 today.

Im sure there is some aftermarket company that can do it...

One thing I miss off my 2004 E55 was the solar panels- they really did work.

Thanks. I wonder if there is anything in the car that would prevent it from being installed.

For the record, I found the best solution for this, as well as VIM [video in motion]. It even keeps your factory warranty and is installed at the MB dealership nearest you.
