what's up all? i recently had a customer come in asking if i could install a remote start on his '05 toyota prius. i've never worked on one other than installing an amp and an indash. i really didn't see the point of a remote start on something that doesn't actually "run" at "idle". the electric motors engage when at max heat. i know he would have to loose a key fob, but i'm not sure about any other details or if it would even benefit him. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Whatever you do, DO NOT let the white smoke leak out of the wires.....

Vehicle Notes 
PLEASE NOTE: This vehicle is equipped with a TRANSPONDER passive anti-theft system. A bypass module may be available which will not require a key. Contact your supplier to find out. If one is not available to you, please see the appropriate security diagram before any remote start installation
Additional Notes 
HYBRID CARS: Set remote start for diesel mode with ten second delay and forty-five minute run time. Heater or AC must be in the on position for remote start to be effective. Engine will only turn on if climate controls are on. (SAME WITH LEXUS RX400H).
