Non-TotalTech Members price is $249.99. I have had this since 2018. So far so good!

You must not live in a cold weather area. Being able to start up your car while inside, when your car is covered in snow, and freezing cold. That's the use case.

Insane deal! I think the best this has ever been was $120 2 years ago. I've got this installed on 4 cars so far, and it has never failed me.

Ok, so no one asked... Is it a good deal at 250 for no members? Or wait to see if they have a better sale for BF?
Yes, great deal. In the past, $250 is lowest it's ever been.

Quote from MBZ321 :
If your car is push button start, I don't think you need your OEM remote, but don't quote me on that. If You have a key in your original fob, you will probably still have to carry that too. It looks like (according to the manufacturer site) it can be programmed for your OEM Fob to do the starting, but then you lose the other features like 2-way notification.

Also, does anyone want to be my TotalTech friend ?
I really don't care about the two way notification thing, I just want to be able to remote start when it's cold outside.

So do you use their big fat remotes with your regular remote or can you use your regular remote with button sequences?

I don't want to carry 2 remotes
I have two of these. They can program your existing remote. One vehicle is lock lock lock and the other is lock unlock lock. Definitely go for the second option so you alarm chirp doesn't piss of the neighbors.

Is it a good deal at 249? (Don't have the membership) also If I ship to my house do I just take it to my local Best Buy for installation or do I have to pick up where it is available to get the installation for free?

It's showering $249 how is it that you are getting $139?
First, you have to be able to read.
2nd, once you learn to read, you will see that it says that $139 is for TotalTech members.

Accd to website they will price match themselves within the return period upon request.
thanks. i was just thinking that they might do a better sale on a different model. which would make the price match irrelevant. either way, i went for it.

Can I just buy Total Tech, get the deal, then refund Total Tech? It says there's a 60 return policy on Total Tech.
I've read stories both ways. Some people have had success canceling, others have been told they can't cancel once they use the TT benefits.

That said, my local BB is booked out 2+ months on installations, so you may be going over 60 days before you even get the thing installed.

It's nice in Arizona to cool the car off as well.

If buying more than 1, use separate transactions. I bought 3 items last week that are all on-sale now...as I was told I could adjust if went on sale. When I tried I was told they can only apply 1 price match adjustment. I would have to return the other 2 and repurchase at sale price. A huge waste of time and irritation.

I am a Non-Totaltech member. When I tried to check out, it was just for picking up the Kit. Did not let me select the installation date/ time.
Maybe installation just for Totaltech member only
Best buys website is pretty bad. Switch to a computer if you were on mobile and it will work correctly. The last time I bought this I had to chat with them, but they fixed it.
