Stock Subaru remote starter kit?!? Sign In

trying to get a remote starter kit for my girlfriend for Christmas, and I spoke to someone at Subaru and they said that I need either a stock Subaru remote starter, OR an aftermarket one installed correctly, as to not void warranty.
does anyone know where I can find a Subaru brand remote start kit?

I personally dislike the dang things but if you must I'd go right to Subaru for their original. IMO they are dangerous and are the cause of problems later like many things that violate integrity of OE wiring.

You didn't ask but how about a high end detail job, wash, wax, interior, touch-up paint, paintless ding/dent removal, shampoo and a year's membership in a motor club like a AAA type thing? Either or whatever you do - it's a nice thought and you are a good egg for thinking of her and the car,


Good luck with your choice Wink,

well it is what she REALLY wants for x-mas....and the stock ones I've found (what a PAIN to find online) are close to $300, which, in that case, i wont be able to afford those.

I'll call Subaru today and find out some info. Thanks Tom!

Don't argue with the boss!

Been a while but I've seen them at wholesale clubs etc., for short change. What would really matter to me is really well done intall with anything tapped into soldered and sealed up. I'd really pay strict attention to the papers of whatever you choose such that it can be either fixed or removed it troubles did occur.

If getting OE is trouble and too expensive try the info below - folks right near me who do a booming biz with remote starts and stereo with some VERY high end work going on.

Free plug for the place.......

Gary@Wurlizerstereo.net (Owner really is named Gary Wurlitzer) the place's website is.....

www.wurlitzerstereo.net or rattle their cage for price 508-481-4845 or 508-481-1365

I've dealt with Todd Nickerson there too. That's in Marlborough, MA about 2mi from me.

Good luck whatever you find,

T

thanks again Tom!

I spoke to someone yesterday, and apparently Subaru never made a stock remote starter for an '07 Forester. Going to look into aftermarket....hopefully all goes well.
