REMOTE ENGINE START SYSTEM III any installation required?

Seriously considering getting this with my $500 credit - is there any installation that needs to be done in the car ???

Not sure how much work needs to be done, but the installed price is $508. So it looks like they are only charging $109 for labor which is about an hour.

There is a module that plugs into existing harness near back seat. You need Acura HDS computer to activate remote start option and to sinc up new remotes.

EE4Life previously posted install instructions for most every accessory. You can find the remote start system here:

As mentioned there is a module and it requires removal of the rear seat.

Here's the master thread containing all of the accessories:

I was the same, but yesterday decided on the Remote Engine Start system. I'll be getting that (plus trunk tray, wheel locks, and cargo hooks). I was originally thinking about spoiler and body side molding (as I had them on my TSX and liked them) but I'm not crazy about them on the TLX. I think they A) look a little cheap and B) take away from the nice lines and luxury styling of the car. Just my
