Seems I always get the cars with no bypasses and tech soft calling me for starters. Anyone have any knowledge on this one?
Wire magic goes back to 2007.

Does the person have an extra key for the bypass? I just looked into one for my mother-in-laws 08-ish Saab and they wanted $800 for a programmed key...

Yeah have 2 keys. Can give up one if needed.
2007 had resistance locks and no disarm. Rf only.
I can probably add it to the no can do list along with the 2011 range rover and 2011 panamera that called for starters. My luck.

2 attempts on a bloody S40 Volvo, the dealers say 3.5 hours just to remove the ignition switch.
The first CAN-All was faulty, now I discover the blinking 5204 works fine as an alarm but doesn't as a remote start...........
And naturally the customer is 2 hours away across (diagonally) London.
Clue, that last Saab was a Vauxhall/Opel Insignia and a Buick Regal, maybe that will help.
The Euro GMs are using a GM single wire (Green) and Green and white CAN wires in the steering column on top.
But I still needed a key in the box.

Amateurs assume, don't test and have problems; pros test first. I am not a free install service.
Read the installation manual, do a search here or online for your vehicle wiring before posting.

I just did my 2009 Saab 9-3. I had to modify the ignition to get it to work. I followed this guide: www.treyadcox.com/93/Saab%209-3%20Remote%20Start.pdf‎

It will consume a key, but it works perfectly. My car is a 2009 Saab 9-3 Aero, V6 turbo, 6 speed manual. I still have some spare parts and could make one for you if you want, just PM me.
