FYI, this CSX model with drone capability (phone start), was $280 1 year ago is lowest it's been according to previous SD posts.

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.

What the actual eff are you talking about?
- 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.
I thought the T13 was touch screen. My sincerest apologies for offending you.

Why not just buy the CSX9913-DC and get it over with? Maybe because it's well over $1,000 after t-harness and installation? And this is Slickdeals where saving $ is kinda the whole point? And all you really gain is an LCD screen that'll drain the battery faster, plus a little more distance on the key fob which is kinda pointless when you can just use the LTE option for unlimited distance?

Is this kit/setup transferable to another vehicle in the future if I decide to sell my car?
The harness is vehicle specific...

Can I use this with my cars existing key fob?
It comes with a separate fob, but your stock fob will serve as an additional starter remote via lock>unlock>lock

Does the key fob for this unit replace your OEM or do you need to carry both?

You still need your remote . They can program your OEM KEYFOB but the distance will be really short.

Fail. The 6 nearest Best Buy stores near me in Grand Rapids, MI do not offer installation. Would have to drive 60 miles.

Quote from NavyRain414 :
The vehicle should only be powering down if it is remote started and not covered under the firmware for takeover. I am unaware of any Toyota that will power off once started from the PTS button before or after having one of these installed. If you are experiencing that I would recommend taking the vehicle in to be checked over.
Great. I just want to check that before I order it for my Sienna 2014.

What year. That doesn't sound right. looks like for 2019 and up it only works on KEYFOB and not push to start models

you need the one WITHOUT CSX

DC3 CS4905S-KIT ( aka non-CSX model)

The brain included in this bundle (DC3) is not compatible with manual transmission. You need the bundle that includes the CMX brain. It also requires another part, FT-DASII. I honestly suggest visiting the potential installer and asking, before buying anything. Some shops flat-out refuse to work on them (more for me!).

Thanks for the input, I've read several reviews on most remote start on bestbuy and some say they refused to install them on their vehicles
