Friends: 0 | Re: Viper SmartStart system? Looks really neat. But the first question is if they can install it on a Prius. The closest they get to saying Prius is Toyota Camry 07+ with push to start ignition. No mention of a hybrid system. When I asked at Best Buy if they could install a remote start on my Gen2 (2006), the installation guy said that he didn't even want to attempt it. That was maybe 2 years ago, and maybe things have changed (Gen2 hasn't... in fact they don't even make them any more). One test of their installation skill is if they require an extra keyfob for their setup. The only acceptable answer is no. |

Friends: 0 | Re: Viper SmartStart system? I recently looked into getting the Smart Start for my 2008 Prius. The installers at my Best Buy said that they could install it but it would override my keyless entry - you can't have both activated. In addition, I contacted my dealer and asked for thier input and they would not recommend it. Hope this helps. -Mike |
