Ford Remote Car Starter

I'm thinking about getting one and a buddy of mine might get one as well for his 02 Superduty

How bad would the install be? thoughts?

For the price of them i had mine installed professionally....just because it comes with a lifetime warrantee, im sure i could have done it.....But its less hassle to just have someone put it on for you....

Most run 260 installed with a chip in the key

the oem kits like those are a pita to install... iv done 1 a while back when i turned wrenches for a living.. took about 2 days and book time was 2 hours.. those kits have about a million wires that tap into just about every module on the car

But his is a diesel so it will probably be more too... For your truck with pats here in ohio it would be 260 installed
