Remote Start Kit for 15 Toyota Prius

The 2015 Prius Four that we bought used came with an AudioVox remote starter, but I've mislaid the instructions with the model #. At least one model of AudioVox remote starter was a Toyota-approved accessory, I believe. It did work when I tried it a few months back, but when I tried it again recently it did not work; maybe I disturbed a connection when I was connecting something else, or maybe I inadvertently disabled it when I was playing with a phone app that connects to the OBDII adapter -- and maybe I'll have to use TechStream to re-enable it.

As I am typing this reply, I see down below a list of "Similar Threads - Remote Start Toyota," so you might find some good info. there. And I think I saw at least one YouTube video on the topic too.

 

I think many remote starters, although branded differently, are actually made by DEI. I have a basic Viper system which works well for my purposes. There are a lot of options and you need to decide which are important to you. I had the receiver antenna installed at the top of the windshield behind the mirror and it is unnoticeable.

 

Our dealer install Fortin remote starters and I've never had a problem with it. I bought the wire-by-wire one instead of the quick connect one so that I could transfer it in another vehicle. It was in my '14 Corolla and I removed it before trading it in, then it got reprogrammed and installed in the Prius by my coworker/friend that install those all year round as it was going to be quicker than me searching my way around the wires.

 

Ive seen this kit in a few videos but not sure if it works or how well. If you get it post up how well it works
