hi, i am not very experienced in the installation of these aftermarket systems.  i have only installed 2 or 3 ever.  i just put a remote start / security system in my wifes 2004 chevy trailblazer and it was way more complicated than i anticipated.  i had been reading instructions and studying wiring diagrams for 2 weeks and finally did the install yesterday with still a couple of bugs to be worked out.  the only reason i went with the aftermarket was because gm did not offer an oem system for installation.  i am an ase certified master tech and toyota certified master diagnostic tech.  may i suggest installing oem remote start system from toyota?  i have installed these and i must say everything goes alot smoother with fewer bugs.

The dealer-installed OEM remote start has poor range, a 10-minute runtime, and also shuts off the car when you open the door.
There are several bypass modules to use an aftermarket remote starter with a pushbutton Toyota, but the best one (by far) is Fortin's KEY-OVERRIDE-ALL.
If you want to see all the available modules on the market, go to:
www.bypasskit.com
www.idatalink.com
www.ifar.ca
In all cases, you can go to those sites, and read the install manual online to see what's involved.
The key-override-all costs about $5 more (wholesale) than some of the other modules, but it's well worth it. Installation time is reduced, you don't need as many relays.
Best of all, unlike all the other modules, you won't have to cut the car's brake wire, you'll only splice into it instead.
The other modules that have you cut the brake wire, if your connection should fail and come apart, the car won't start and would have to be towed.
With the key-override-all, if your connection fails, it's only the remote start that'll stop working, but the car can still be driven until it's fixed.

Sorry, you can NOT post a reply.
