mmm remote start


warm / cool the car before you get to it 

Was just thinking the same thing.

Set the heater to hot before you get out in winter then get into a lovely warm car on an icy morning.  (Can you set it to remotely turn on the HRW when you are in a rush. 

Well done Nick, what sort/make of alarm was it.

i'm sure i posted that some where
its PLC auto systems
FM-a3 

You did Nick, I just replied as I was reading it, should have gone back to edit when I had read the full thread.

Good stuff Nick.  I have one concern though.

Love the idea it's all locked and remote starting to warm up.  Get in and put the key in the ignition to unlock the steering I assume.  I would be scared of getting in as per normal and turning to start mode whilst engine is running.  Did it once by mistake and didnt like the noise it made.  Is there a way to prevent this. ?  Olus without the key neing in the ignition on warmup is the dash active, handbrake loght and rev counter etc.

rev counter works and everything
if you take the hand brake off or press the brake with out the key in the ignition the engine will cut out and sound the alarm
i just put the key in turn it twice job done
not sure if there is a way of taking out the steering lock but wouldn't want to really unless you wired some sort of motor to turn it not sure on that

So the big question is what would a supply and fit cost be ?

Just remember, this will be more of a challenge to a post 95 car with the deadlock immobiliser fitted.....unless you want to compromise the immobiliser function on your car!
