Hi all, did the search forum bit and I did not get all the information i was looking for.

I have a 2008 armada LE (it's not push start button it's the one you have to turn as long as you have key on you) , and am looking to install the remote starter myself. I do have experience working on cars.
Just looking for a unit to start the car, nothing fancy.
Keeping it simple.

Any advice on what unit to purchase, and what modules needed?
If you can direct me to a website that would be great.

Anyone ever install one on this model before? What am i looking?
Possibly where to find the wire diagram?

Thanks

Everyone knows what opinions are like, but my suggestions would be: Avital 4113 with a ADS/Idata Module. You can find the install manual for the ADS piece online to see if you are comfortable with the task. Your vehicle has what's known as 'intellikey'.

I totally agree, the 3113 and the Idatalink nodule will work perfectly for you...
