I have a 98 GC and I compared the colors and they are indeed different. If you have the Gray ign key, you will need to install a bypass module. Here is a link to what one looks like. There are several places where you can buy these, not sure what brand of remote start you have. Good luck!

Yes the 2 vehicles are different. The 1998 doesn't have a sentry key system and you can use a databus doorlock interface module for this as well or you can use 4 relays and wire each front doors for the keyless entry.

Tim, you say you have a GC? I have just the regular C. Is the wiring the same. Also, I have the black key not the grey so there is no "chip". Jeff, is that what you mean by Sentry Key?

I'm looking at this remote starter. Any problems?

Yes, that is correct. The 1998 doesn't require any bypass modules for it to be remote started. The Laredo that I did last week had nothing for security except the OEM alarm system. The only problem that I see is that the range will be short on this because it uses the OEM remote FOB's. I would still get a stand alone aftermarket remote start system if I were you
