Ford iPhone remote start

Installed this in my 2012 F-250. I purchased it on line from a dealer in Louisiana. My truck has the stock remote start so I didn't need the hood switch or antenna as those were already on my vehicle. Installation was fast and simple, just plug and play. The dealer I purchased it from was able to activate it for me over phone. I also activated the security feature on it so if someone breaks into my truck it sounds the horn and flashes the lights and also sends a text to my phone alerting me of the break in. It works great, it's very nice to have the added range for the remote start which I'll need for the up-coming Montana winter. Remote Access | The Official Site for Ford Custom Accessories Here's a link to the installation instructions, these cover a number of different vehicle, you just have to page through them to get to the trucks. http://www.fordservicecontent.com/fo...k3-15-2013.pdf

One other neat thing about it is that if your vehicle didn't come with remote start, you can add this, plus the hood switch (the wiring is already there) and the antenna which mounts behind the glove box, then you'll have the remote start which gives you the ability to lock, unlock, and start your vehicle from any where there's cell or wifi service, and an alarm system all in one package, and it's a hell of a lot easier to install than an after market system. One thing to note on Fords web site for this product is says, Vehicle Notes: Requires Vehicle Security Kit 19A361 at an additional cost. I don't know why it says this, mine doesn't have this kit and it works just fine.
