Getting me a remote start to install and I need me a good bypass for my transponder thingy. I don't want one that requires a key inside it though. So where can I get a starter bypass that works on my truck (most only work on older models) AND doesn't require me to give up a key?

I haven't seen one where you don't use a key. If your fear is about someone getting under the dash and pulling off the key (which by the time they do that the alarm will be going crazy) , just cut the metal part and leave just the plastic part where the transponder is. Customers have come to me and tell me they only have one key (transponder key) and what I do is have them get two copies (regular keys) and I chop the metal part of the transponder key , remove the ring, atach the key to the ring and hide it from the world. Then I install the alarm and remote start just like a regular car with no other special modules. After all if you worry about security that's where the alarm comes into play, if not why would someone want a security system in the first place? Your problem is if you're just doing the remote start and no alarm that's another story.

Well I was afraid I'd have to do it like that. Reason why I didn't want to have the extra key is because that costs me extra money on top of the bypass unit and a stand alone would probably be cheaper if there was one. Great idea with cutting off the key part though. Thanks for the info. :)

Hey is not that much, to get a set of new keys at walmart it'll cost you about what? 5 bucks for both of them?? once you do that trick I told you about you don't have to go to the dealer to get transponder keys, now those keys are expensive. on the contrary to spend money you'll save because with this trick you don't need a bypass module.
