Living in Michigan, I really miss the remote start installed on my last car.

Pro's and Cons of favorite remote start options for a 2008 CLK550?

I do have keyless go. Do not have line of sight to my car while at work, at home it is in the driveway or garage so no issues with distance.

Let's hear from those who have a remote start if you would.

I just installed a two piece solution in my S Class. The MidCity remote starter will work within range of your key fob. A long press on the Panic button will start the car. It installs easily in the CAN bus, no wiring under the hood.

I also added the Drone Mobile unit, which interfaces with the remote starter and allows starting via your smartphone. I like that feature since if we're out shopping or whatever I can pre warm or cool the car while we're checking out. About $800 installed.

Last bit was a wifi garage door opener so I can vent the garage and warm the car via smartphone. $150, works with any brand opener.

Yup I got 4 Compustart systems with drones and they are the way to go
