Anyone install the ford BC3Z-19G364-A Remote Star System? Any problems and how difficult? Also, my truck has power door locks so what is the 19G366 Remote Start Hood Switch Kit?
Super easy. Takes about 30 minutes. All plug and play. The dealer will activate it for you after you install it. Most dealers charge around $50 to activate it.

Thanks, Byron
hey byron,if you don't mind me asking,how much did you pay and where did you get your remote?
Derek4343, My local dealer quoted me $218.90 but a fellow ant the office bought his for $189.00 off e-bay. He hopes to install it this weekend. I will post about the install later. Right now we are under blizzard conditions and I have to go plow snow to get out
of my driveway, LOL-)
Hood switch? I dont care if it will start with hood open, does anybody?
The hood switch is an interlock that will not allow it to start when open. This will prevent injury if, say you are working on something under the hood and someone tries to remote start.
As the system needs to be activated by a dealer, I would not think that they would activate the remote start system if the hood switch is not installed. Many trucks without factory remote start (my base STX) already has the hood switch installed.
