A client from Chesterfield visited our Midlothian location before the holidays, looking for a remote start for his wife’s 2014 Toyota Camry. The Camry had the factory push-button start system, and technically we can add the remote start right into the factory remote, but he also wanted to make sure she could start it when farther away – at work or out on the town.
We went over the various remote start systems that we offer and narrowed it down to a couple key factors. One, he wanted to make sure the remote was small and easy to use. Two, he really liked the two-way confirmation style remotes. Not only do these reach a much farther distance than a normal remote, but they also confirm back tthat the vehicle received the command to start.
When the client’s wife is in a building and can’t see the Camry, and she presses the remote start button, it will let her know the Camry got the signal. If she presses the button and doesn’t get the confirmation beep, she knows she was out of range, and to try again from a little closer.
Our Slice Jr. remote kit was a perfect match – you can check it out in the video below.
After wrapping up the remote kit as a gift, they had the remote start installed shortly after. The Camry owner was thrilled not to have to get into a cold car in the mornings anymore!
