Pro Tip: The installation should be fairly hidden, other than the antenna that is mostly hidden behind the rear view mirror. Install it in her car before Christmas then just give her the remotes on Christmas morning, it will be more exciting than a pile of boxes. Speaking from experience Frown

I just purchased this. Installation is included at this price. You'll be able to set up your appointment after your order. It will list the T-Harness and Installation as being Free.

A calendar comes up and you can select the date and time that works best for you. It just shows you the earliest available date after you've added it to your cart.

Make sure your cart has three items in it before you check out, one is remote starter, one is free installation, one is free harness.

Anyone have this for their Prius? I have a 2015 and wondering if it's worth it ?

Will I have to carry the second fob? Or will this one replace my current one?

Do the bestbuy totaltech if you are buying both, same price more value. Just cancel the membership so it doesnt autorenew
Not understanding. I probably have 540 after tax in this right now.

WIth total tech, If I'm thinking correctly, it would be 300 + 199 for total tech service + tax so pretty close. AM i missing something?

I'm afraid to cancel now and do total tech because I was able to get both cars in on the same day in two weeks. With this deal the spots are probably already out another week or more from rush orders....

This one says installation required and you get prompted to purchase installation…anyone know whether that's needed or is installation included like it previously had been at this price?
Yeah, I don't see anywhere in the description that installation is included.

Does anyone know if these work with a 2016 sienna? Not sure where a list of compatible vehicles are

When you hit the add it to your cart button, it should take you to a page that has you add free installation.

The tech membership drops cost to 150 a pop with install and harness free. So you have 300 for both cars plus tax and the 200 membership plus tax. Then if a family member needs one boom you got more savings but at worst you got the total tech value for a year too

Delete everything from your cart, and then click on this item link again , and then click add to cart for the starter, after that they should bring you to a page where you need to press add to cart again. If you do both then three things should be in your cart. if you cannot do it, then maybe it is regional

I gotcha. Thanks. If I would've known earlier, I would've done it. Now that I've already ordered and have appointments setup, I'm just going to stick with my order as it. Appreciate it though.

Works fine on a Prius. Worth it if you don't enjoy entering into a cold car. You will have to carry your current FOB and the remotes.

Just picked this up! Thanks OP, scheduled the installation 3 weeks out (you do that right before you pay) - paid $270 all in with a $10 BB rewards certificate redeemed. Looking forward to being able to cool/heat the car remotely now!

Sad. Doesn't work. Right in the product description with this link, it says installation required. I'm in Wisconsin

I bought this in March for $249. I've been very pleased with it. I did have to upgrade my truck battery as the one installed was the bare minimum from the factory and couldn't handle the additional load, Since then I haven't had a single problem.

What on earth do people need a remote starter for on today's fuel-injected modern cars? No one needs to warm up a car anymore. All it's doing is spewing fumes into the house.
In Texas, a parked car can reach like 130°+ after one hour in the summer. And this past winter there were times I wouldn't have been able to open my door if it weren't for this thing.

Regarding fumes— this is slickdeals. Who has room to park in their garage?!
