I've gotten this a couple times in the past. Great deal. FYI if your car has an older remote start system wired up. Geek Squad will charge an additional $150 to rip out the old system.

I believe it depends on the place. The Best Buy near me didn't charge me anything, the guy installing it said it's not much more effort since he's already in there installing a new one.

Not a great deal as this was $300 just a few weeks back. Only get it unless you can't wait.

Has been $250 in the past for reference but I agree about waiting unless you really need it.

I got it on Thanksgiving day for $299, not sure if we'll ever see $249 again. $349's not bad, but if you need it for Christmas it's not terrible.

At this price, they should be making the second remote also two way. Great system, but that one way remote annoys me.

That was year ago. Not going to see $250 again with new inflation. Black friday was as low as it gets at $300. (hope I'm proven wrong)

If you need for Manual you have to get a different model that's not sold at Best Buy. Only reason I've had to cancel this

I got this remote start installed for my 2020 Toyota camry and it doesn't shut off when doors are opened.

I have a 2011 Ranger. I'm looking at this add-on alarm for 120 bucks: https://www.bestbuy.com/product/c...c=pdp_page Have you ever had one of these installed with the remote start? Do you have any opinion on this? Thanks.
