Remote Car Start for E500

Does anyone know of a viable remote start solution for the E500? In the summer and winter it would be great to start the car before I'm inside to allow the climate control system some time to do its thing.

99% of folks here will say "NO" its not possible to do because of the ignition system MBs have nowadays...

However, there has been 1 person I've seen who's done it... however, it will jeopardize the anti-theft system of your MBs... in my eyes, aftermarket anti-theft systems don't match the MB... oh, and it most definitely void your warranty..

Thanks... I don't want to do something that drastic as replacing the anti theft system. It sux MB didn't put in some type of a provision for this and no after market solutions are available. It seems to be such a thoughtful and basic feature and I woud have gladly paid to add it. Oh well.
