Circuit City? Other? I want to buy a remote car starter for my g/f's 2002 Mitsubishi Montero sport, which needs an ignition bypass installed because there is a chip in the key. ------------------ Brian K.

Other then the novelty of starting your car 10 feet away from it, is there a real purpose to this? Perhaps in a really cold climate to get the car warmed up but, wouldn't you need to leave it idling for 10-15 minutes? Why not just use a block heater then? Asking cause I can't think of one.

You know when the people are leaning on the car touching things . Your sitting back in your lawn chair , push the button it starts and scares the heck out of them .

She can start the vehicle from inside a building, the lights come on, and the doors remain locked and the interior lights come on. It is also handy in the Winter to start the car and warm it up before going out.
