Has anyone installed this on their cars?

Both pretty neat!

How much are they asking for it?

That is something that should have come standard on these cars.

I love it!

I am getting ready to replace my car and I still want to stick that on there like NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As to factory remote start, it is seldom done as there is too much liability involved.

gikser

all newer gm's come with remote start

yeah we could really use that around here! Would love to warm my car up for 5-1 minutes before getting in it when its 5F !!! Any pricing details?

Cedric1031

seems good to have. how much is that device?

blueknight

Yeah my 07 Tahoe came with it and it is fantastic! Especially the cold mornings and hot days.

Midcity Engineering is local to me here in Chicago. I've spoken to them before and they seem fairly competent. I emailed them about this module and will let you guys know what they say. I agree w/ everyone else - this should be a no brainer. Hopefully they won't gouge on the price.

was the owner going to make sweet love to himself with that music?

Cool. Keep us posted. Maybe we can get a GB price !

got a reply from mid city...
- unit is not ready yet and will be for keyless go cars first
- they tested on ml and are still working on others

here is what i got from nav-tv....
they got a unit for E, SL, and new C class without keyless go ready to go ....about 2-3 week lead time to receive unit. they said it will be about a 1000$ installed. i am going to test a nav tv unti on my car and sign up as distributor for them, will offer installations to people in NJ/PA area.

theeddie

the install looked simple from the videos

Fr33kn63

both units look very interesting. I want one!
From what I was able to tell...and please correct me if I am wrong, the Nav-TV unit wont keep the car running if you unlock the doors. But the other one by mid city engineers will allow for the car to continue to run if you unlock the doors. Is that right? If this is the case I think I like Mid City Engineers version more. Wonder how much for this unit? I do have keyless go for my car.

prodigymb

as of now there is wiring involved - i was told the nav-tv unit is 7 wires to connect.

Max.H

very cool.. do you have to insert the key to drive the car?

The Godfather

lol $1K for that? No thanks.

liquiddi

$1K for a remote starter! You've got to be kidding me. Go get a top of the line auto page or something. My jeep came stock with the remote start.

aleksandar1099

its cool, but not $1k cool.... maybe $300 cool...

prodigymb

well they told me it was preliminary pricing. top of the line 2 way paging autopage is about 500-600 installed. keep i mind you CAN NOT install auto page or DEI product on a W211 platform.....because of the stock security system and the way the keys are. i have been trying to get remote start ever since i bought this car and no-one would touch it and i have a lot of friends in the business. i will get pricing from nav-tv when i fill out the dealer application......but 1000-1200 installed is what Bob told me over the phone today !

NSX2NV

That is really cool. I would be down with a group buy if that would be possible. But for $1,000-$1,200 that's rediculous! I like the engineneer one better anyway. Hopefully they will be reasonable with their price and won't gouge.

gikser

for a g note ill put on my coat go outside and turn the car on and lock the doors with blade key of course a thousand times !!!!!
