Like many of you in order to warm up my car i have to go and either sit inside while its warming up or bring it close to the entrance where i work and stand by the entrance for 10 minutes while it warms up. Well i do this no more. I found out last night that my alarm is able to unlock the doors even with the ignition on SWEET. Now i know this isn't possible with all alarm systems as i tried it with my previous car and yo couldn't do it.By the way I have a Viper alarm.

 

A lot of companies are making remote starters. Heck, I remember 15 years ago installing one on a 928. I believe some cars are even coming equipped from the factory with this function.
I live in Sunny SoCal, where it's just a bling thing. I bet where you live (especially this time of year), a lot of people have it installed on their car(s) .

i just start my car... set the turbo-timer to 5-6mins.. take the key out.. lock the doors.. and go back inside.. come back out.. car is still there and its nice and toasty!! hahaha

My alarm came with a turbo-timer, it's absolutely amazing for mornings and before leaving work. Best one by far though is leaving parties early in the morning and all your friends can get in a nice warm car They love the EVO lol!

 

+1 Talk about being innovative with technology. I'll try that out.

yeah i had a viper alarm on my srt4!!! had the same feature on it too.. it was cool!

 

I have a Compustar Alarm that has the Turbo Timer Remote Start and Window control to let the heat out when it is hot!

 

This is what I plan on getting for my car when I move down to Atlanta.

 

Nice!

remote start is one of the first things I got for mine.. Having to go out and start your car in the freezing cold sucks

 

meh, i just suck it up and go out in the cold. i'll listen to music or make a phone call for a few minutes if i need to while it warms up. really not that big of a deal to me.
