i am going to get an add on remote start for someone and i was wondering what bypass modules i need to make it all work. the system im looking at is a valet remote start/keyless entry unit model #561R. this is going to be installed on a 2003 ford expedition. i want to be able to do away with the factory remote and use the valet remote for starting and lock/unlock.i just need to know what else i need to make it all work properly. i would really appreciate any help you can offer.

You'll need a transponder bypass. I use the keyoveride sl2 by fortin. Almost every alarm maker has some kind of transponder bypass though.

make sure they already have two keys for the vehicle!! other than that, i suggest a databus bypass such as the XK04 (bypasskit.com)

You could also use another dei part. 556U/W transponder interface. A little quicker and easier to hook up than the XK04. Both will work great.

But then you lose a key with the 556U. I am not familiar with the XK04 but personally I would rather not lose a key and go with the Idatalink bypass.
