I've installed quite a few remote starters and I like AstroFlex the best. You can check them out at http://www.astroflex.com/ENGLISH/English.HTM
I also like Command Start.
The new Ford dealer installed kits are good too.

Best Buy, Can install them cheaply.
Check vehicle warranty first. There have been some computer screw ups after these have been installed costing vehicle owner a bunch of cash for repairs.

Racerguy,
Need help with an astrostart and wiring the Aux #1 Aux #2 to turn the heated seats on and off. Have an 05 PSD F350. Any help would be great.

Thanks

Watch out for Best Buy, they wanted a third key to mount in the dash. I paid $300 and had the dealership do it. They put in a by pass and it is covered under warranty.

www.bought4less.com has one with keyless entry for about $65
the module needed to bypass the passlock (or whatever its called) is about $40 or so It doesn't need an extra key I dont think
