Default Start your car with your iPhone

You’ll need Viper’s $499 SmartStart system, but the SmartStart App lets you control your car via iPhone: start the engine, lock and unlock doors, open the trunk or set off the alarm.

I have an autostart which I need to wire up. But what sucks is then I cant use my fuel-cutoff and i tend to leave my car in first gear.

Its a debate of comfort vs. safety/security

Plus, with all those iphones being hacked lately...

find out the price and let me know. I have a buddy who is a manager at Mickey Shorr so it would prob. be close to what he could get me.
