It was easy to install? Just plug and play?

I'm really surprised Infiniti didnt install these standard on their vehicles, my dads 2007 Tahoe came with a factory installed remote start standard

Above I have the links of the three components of the system. I purchased the harness from Amazon and the Dball2 and SmartStart module from Visions (a electronics store here in Calgary, Canada).

The range of the fob remained unchanged, of course. So it only works when you are quite close to the car. For any distance I use the app on my android smart phone.

I love the system because I don't have to have any additional fobs on my keychain and I'm always carrying my phone. The range is essentially unlimited just as long as the car has cell phone signal.

Thank you for the help! Would you mind providing a general description layout of the plug and play setup? I.e. -

Dball2 (what is its functionality?) is attached to the harness, which is attached to the Viper Smartstart module which is attached where (to the back of the push to start button)?

Thanks again

That's the beauty of this system. It uses the stock key fob. Just hit the lock button 3 times. But if you want extended range, you need the extra key fob. During the summer I can put the extra key fob away and come winter I can stick it on my key chain and deal for a few months. Either way, I can still use the stock fob. I think I'm gonna pull the trigger and do it.

Originally wanted to link this but it seems it sold out. It was $130. I'm going to get the extended range $170 one.

I like this idea, what will it take to do on a 6MT? I know this could be a touchy subject...

Which FOB would I need for the extended range?
