Remote Starter for 2 vehicles

I bet other units have 2 way transmitters that can control 2 vehicles, but the only one I am aware of that does this is Astrostart (4204, 5204, and 2205). Most other units just have that capability with the 1 way transmitter. But like I said, I am sure other brands have got to have this by now.

Well, the scytek remotes do have them..at least the galaxy line does.. it comes with a button on the side of the remote which is kind of a shift function that will change the encryption to the second brain/car for the existing buttons on the remote..

just buy two of the same alarms/ remote starters than program one remote from car number two, to car number ones remote start. trick program the button configs different. than take remote from car number one than program it to car number twos alarm remote start, use the same config you used with car number twos remote. now both people have a remote for both cars.


now make sure you program the other cars remote different in the opposite car so thar no commands will program the other car when they are next to each other.

i think it would be better to use dei products they work very well and are easy to program remotes.

for what you want i have two viper 791s installed in me and my wifes car and i use one remote for both cars. exactly what you want to do, you just have to program the remote from the other systems into the other.

mecp certification is not always needed. I have it and it has not helped me out at all. my experience out shines it.

The Crimestopper EZstart 90 has that capability- you can push a switch on the side of the remote and within 3 seconds you have control over second vehicle- and carry only one remote- works great- you can program up to four remotes to each base unit.....

I am sure 90% of the product lines out there have the capability to control 2 vehicles, but the question was regarding the 2 way transmitters. I haven't looked for this feature on other brands in the last year, but As of last season, Astrostart is the only unit I am aware of that can control 2 vehicles via the 2 way transmitters.

I made a point of it to research this last year because I thought it was pointless to have the 2 vehicle control feature only available on the one way transmitters since the whole point of getting a 2 way unit is to use the 2 way transmitter.
