speeddr7 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I want to get a remote start for my wifes 06 Forrester. I heard something about these cars being pre wired for it. Can anyone answer this? and does anyone have any experience with any aftermarket starters? Who needs tickets to the gun show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meier motor sports Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 i dont know about the pre wired bit. but installing it yourself is not hard, but it is a big pain in the ass if u have never done one before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK Wagon Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I want to get a remote start for my wifes 06 Forrester. I heard something about these cars being pre wired for it. Can anyone answer this? and does anyone have any experience with any aftermarket starters? Just got an auto start installed in my 5spd. It is a pain and you are going to pay for it if you wire something wrong... have it done professionally. Autostart makes a model specific for a manual transmission. You will have to buy another key that will be wired up under the dash (since it has to have the transponder in the car to start it). There are other companies out there but "autostart" is about as reputable as they come. Expect to pay around $500-600 for a "2" way, less for a "1" way.

speeddr7 Posted November 23, 2006 Author Share Posted November 23, 2006 Thanks for all the help guys, but its not for my car. Its my wifes automatic Forrester. Does that make things any easier in the install?, and can I use the factory remote? Who needs tickets to the gun show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rides20 Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 You can't use the factory remote, and unfortunately the 06's were not pre-wired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speeddr7 Posted November 24, 2006 Author Share Posted November 24, 2006 funny how sh#@ like that happens. Like everything in my basement. What brand did you get? Who needs tickets to the gun show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK Wagon Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 As I said, I am using an after market "Autostart". Unlike other brands I know that blast the horn to let you know it is set, this one just gives you the normal beep. You know your car has started because the parking lights remain on.
