They also wired an 3 pairs of IR headphones so the kids could listen to the movie & the parents could enjoy adult conversation or rock down the road with their favorite tunes. The center console below includes a 1/2 din DVD player which was also custom mounted and fitted into a blank factory pocket. The DVD player not only plays dvd's but also has a SD memory card input along with an external aux input for future use.

How to Buy a Remote Start System

A Remote Start System allows you to warm up your car during cold days before you leave your home or office. Moreover, it can be used to turn on the air conditioner during hot summer days or the heater during cold winter days. Remember last week when is was freezing - Your car was so darn cold in the morning. - Here are just a few suggestions on how to purchase a Remote Car Starter.

 

 

#1. Select a system that will give you visual confirmation that the remote start is engaged. This can be achieved by flashing the headlights or parking lights.

#2. Make certain that the system includes a pin switch on the hood of the vehicle. The switch will sense when the hood is open and prevent the remote start from starting the car. This protects you or a mechanic who may be working on the car.

#3. Make certain that the system can incorporate the foot brake so that the remote start system cuts off when the brake is tapped.

#4. Make certain that the system can monitor the transmission to assure that it is in park when the remote start system is engaged. If the transmission is out of park, this monitoring feature will prevent the system from starting the car.

#5. Make certain that there is a relay added to the starter of the car so that the starter will not grind if you engage it while the engine is already on. Remember, you will have to turn the ignition switch on with the key when you enter the car after you have remotely started it. The antigrind feature protects the car's starter from damage if you accidentally engage the starter while turning on the ignition switch.

#6. Make certain that the system includes a temperature sensor or an oil-pressure circuit to sense whether the engine is overheating. It should be able to shut off the engine if it is too hot.

#7. Select a system that allows you to program what button or buttons you use to engage the remote start. If you have children and they like to play with your remote transmitter, this feature can prevent them from accidentally starting the car. The installer can simply program the remote so that two buttons need to be pressed simultaneously to engage the remote start.

#8. Choose a system that allows you to stop the remote start via the transmitter.

#9. Select a system that will turn the engine on if the ambient temperature drops below a certain level if you live in a very, very cold climate.

#10. Select a system that has a range of at least 400 feet. We highly suggest a system with at least 800 feet or more.

#11. Select a system that can bypass the original equipment manufacturer's (OEM) immobilizer systems if your car is equipped with one. The OEM system requires a key with a microchip imbedded in it to start the car. Some manufacturers have created ways to bypass this when engaging their remote start product.

#12. Once you have decided on the features your remote start system will include. Talk with your local mobile electronics retailer about the products they offer. Many times they will have a demonstration unit set up.

#13. Ask about warranty & labor warranty, some systems have a lifetime warranty and some dealers over 2 years of labor warranty or longer.

#14. Make sure the local retailer has been in business and installing remote car starters for at least 5-8 years. Some of these systems can get tricky on the newer advanced cars - you need a local company that are experts.

#15. Don't purchase any cheap model, this will give you headaches in the future. Stay away from the big box stores and uncle Wally.

Here is some quick information about the latest in Remote Car Start technology and a new system which is becoming popular.

Viper SmartStart?

Are you tired of carrying around another clunky remote control on your keyring or finding yourself out of range when you really need to warm up or cool down your car before getting in? Now you can remote start or lock and unlock your car just by pushing a button on your Android, Iphone, Blackberry smartphone; using the popular Viper SmartStart app from Directed Electronics, the leader in vehicle security and remote start.

The simple graphical interface gives you control over the following features of your installed Viper remote start or security/remote start system:

Lock/arm Unlock/disarm Remote car starter Trunk release Panic or car finder

You can also control multiple vehicles – great for families! – and assign more than one user to control a vehicle. It's easy with SmartStart!

DIRECTV, When it's time to cut the cable simply call Cartronix, Inc

Why DIRECTV?

DIRECTV is everything TV ought to be: the hottest shows, the biggest movies and the most anticipated sporting events -- all in crisp digital-quality picture and sound. The best in entertainment is what DIRECTV is all about.

Proud History

When DIRECTV launched in 1994, it was the first entertainment service in the U.S. to deliver all digital-quality, multi-channel TV programming to an 18-inch satellite dish. The launch of DIRECTV® service, with its national reach, provided people across the continental U.S. with a much needed alternative to cable. And for the first time, rural consumers who were not being served by cable at all now had access to programming like their urban and suburban counterparts.

Breakthroughs in Innovation

DIRECTV also pioneered technological breakthroughs, including the first national system with interactive on-screen program guide and pay per view ordering by remote control. DIRECTV innovations and awards for digital broadcast satellite technology have set a new standard for televised entertainment.

The Leader in the Field

Today, DIRECTV is the nation's leading digital multi-channel television service provider. We offer access to hundreds of channels of quality programming in the places people live — single family homes, condominiums and apartment buildings. DIRECTV also provides television entertainment to tens of thousands of commercial locations, including airports, hotels, restaurants, bars, hospitals and office buildings. And all of this is backed by award-winning customer service and our dedicated employees who make it all work.

Continuing on the Cutting Edge

DIRECTV is continuing to redefine the world of television entertainment. Advances in technology are enabling our viewers to have greater control over their viewing and experience new services on their television, such as digital video recording (DVR), high-definition TV, expanded multicultural programming, interactive programming and more.

With all these exciting entertainment choices and features, DIRECTV is not only making entertainment history it's delivering the future of entertainment today!
