The lowest the DC3 CS4905S-KIT ( aka non-CSX model) has ever been is $220, which was a day October 2023, which I got installed on my 2014 Toyota Sienna. It's been fantastic.
The non-CSX version doesn't get lower than this price though, but often dips down to $250. Make sure you order with the free harness though when you place the order. The guy told me so many times people don't do that and they have to reschedule the install and charge for it.
Here was lowest price for the non-CSX 2 remotes, 3+ mo ago in October. Just a data point if you're wondering how this price compares for premium drone capability.

Even if you could change the sim so to speak, you account will not be cleared to use any features that the Drone unit enables.
- T12/T13 remote is touch screen. No physical buttons means more fiddling.
- T12/T13 is a 2-way with claimed 2 mile (line of sight) range. That's great, but I'd rather have effectively unlimited range with LTE.
- Price w/ T-harness and pro installation....can't beat this deal!
- If you REALLY need the fancy touchscreen graphics and 2-mile range, you can always add the T12 or T13 later by just installing the antenna (ANT-2WSF) onto the Drone X1 module, and of course the remote itself. But be prepared, the cost of the antenna and the key fob alone is about the same as this entire package.
Just ordered and schedule my appointment! Thanks @Navy-Wife!
PS: If anyone wants clarification on how these Compustar / Firstech systems /iDatalink work, mainly for purposes of saving $ with DIY, or adding onto an existing installation, here's a write-up I did on the subject after spending days of research to decode the marketing fluff and non-DIY friendly "instructions" https://www.reddit.com/r/askcargu...ote_

Any idea if a BestBuy approved installer would splice into any wiring? I'm wondering if one could just request they pickup the T-Harness from BestBuy and just install by themself using the plug-n-play approach.

- No, the T12 or T13 are not touchscreen. Both have multiple buttons. I own the T13.
- You can have Drone/cellular with the T12/T13 too, so what's your point?
- Yep. Higher-end products do cost more money.
- You can upgrade later, true. But why waste money on remotes now, if you're just going to buy the T12/13 later? Just buy the CSX9913-DC kit now and get it over with.

The dealer diagnostic and find the smart power control module of the car is bad, it's needs replaced but the part is not available (due to chip shortage). In order to start the car, everytime when the car is park (engine not running) more than 2 hours, I had to remove the negative battery cable then put it back to start the car. I intend to findout the culprit is the power unit or the remote unit, beacuse I think with LTE the remote require more supply power. I could not find out because I trade the car.

Would this add an extra starter relay or replace the OEM relay as some of the other compstar alarm systems.
And is this overkill if I have no intention for remote start or tracking (have Apple airtag and tile for tracking)
added: I know hyundai was offering security kits and that it's basically a compustar alarm kit with a different starter relay to prevent the theft. I just don't remember what kit they are using and I can't seem to find it.
never mind: it looks like this doesn't include an alarm system but this is just a remote start system only. I was mistaken I thought it was an all in one kit.
