    I just placed an order for one of this. 100% plug and play for tacoma. supposedly have a 1 mile range and i like the fact that it doesn't shut off the engine when you open the door. Get in your truck and simply place your key into the on position and tap the brake pedal once and you're ready to drive off. The pit stop feature is also nice for when you need to run to the gas station to grab coffee or drinks and want to leave your car lock and running. They have a install video that explains it more.

    Funny, that one popped up for me on an ad on FB last night. Let us know how the install goes and how it works for you, I'm tempted by it. It was 16 degrees when I left for work this morning and stepping into a hot truck sounds real nice.

    Yeah, i was gonna order it last month but it was out of stock. So, i'm not sure how long their inventory is going to last atm. What sucks is that i placed the order last night and today they sent me a email revealing their 15% discount code. smh. could've saved me $50.

    Willing to share that code if it's generic? I've been eyeing their kits for a while.

    Yeah, I'm interested to hear how this system works as well. Looks like the A/C is able to work when you remote start, as some other systems only blow air, not A/C. Keep us updated please!

    I think the code can be reused for the moment. "OGTOY15"

    I'm satisfied with it so far. Some of the connector in my tacoma was tight to reach during install and the install instruction papers are useless but its self explanatory. the range is no where 1 mile but its alot better than the oem key fob range. I'm going to go ahead and order the smart phone module so i can fire up the truck from any distance.

    Nice! Was it actually 100% plug and play? Do you have an automatic or a manual? I'm curious if there are any extra wires to tap for the manual to make sure it's in neutral.
