Hello everyone. I am new to the site. I currently have a 98 Ford Taurus that I use as my daily driver/beater. Well I want to install a remote start on it for the winter so I dont have to jump in a cold vehicle. Since it is my beater I dont wanna spend a whole lot of money on the remote start. Has anyone ever used a cheaper remote start system with any luck? I found this on ebay http://cgi./NEW-Long-Range-FM-Car-Alarm-Remote-Start-Keyless-Entry_W0QQitemZ230304195216QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item230304195216&_trkparms=72%3A1234%7C39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1308&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 I was wondering if anyone thought that this remote start would work with my vehicle? It does not have keyless entry in the car so I would not use the key less entry portion or the alarm system because I would not want it. I only want to use the remote start of this system. Thanks

or does it look like

if it looks like the first one, then you need a bypass to work with the PATS (Passive Anti-Theft Security) in the vehicle

Don't forget to power up all required accessory circuits in the ignition harness or the fan will never turn on during R/S. Use relays!!
