I forgot to come back and update this. They told me they absolutely can and will do it..... For $750 ?I've actually called my dealership here in TN, and the rep told me not only do we not have the parts for it, but we won't even install it if you bring it to us, something to do with safety.
Wow that’s a rip off!I forgot to come back and update this. They told me they absolutely can and will do it..... For $750 ?
I did a self install for $200-$250 of a fortin kit. A bunch of dealers said no in Massachusetts because of safety issues on a manual (bs excuse). If you’re in the MA area I can lend a hand.
No complaints, the config software was easy to use. (You will need the programmer) The install guide was MOSTLY helpful. You won’t get official support because you are not an authorized installer. No big deal. They’re somehow related to crimestoppers? I’ve installed the fortin evo one on 5 different cars now (friends and family). Configured remote start to factory remote lock button three times. I did one with a extended 2-way rf remote, that wasn’t bad either But not worth another $100 to me. Should be able to get HON7 harness bundled with the evo one unit for $180 on eBay and another $30 for the programmer and $10 for posi tap splicers.I haven't heard of Fortin. I'm looking at their site now. How do you like it?
I'd love to pick your brain more about that self install job and the fortin kit. Also located in Massachusetts conveniently, and sad to see that you can't get them installed around here anymore without the crazy 19 step programming. I had remote starts in both of my RSX-S back in the day and it cost me MAYBE $350 installed, and have always parked in neutral/E-brake as long as I've been driving. I love my fk7 but man I miss remote start.I did a self install for $200-$250 of a fortin kit. A bunch of dealers said no in Massachusetts because of safety issues on a manual (bs excuse).
