Hmm, although they sound good in theory, I'm not too sure that remote starts are so good an idea in practice. You can start your car on the drive to warm it up, and if someone then jumps in and flies off with your car then the insurers can refuse to pay you a penny.
You cannot move the car due to the steering lock still being on. So unless you brake that. Also i think the remote start shuts the engine off. So if they manage to get in (without braking the windows) sit there turn the engine off and double lock the doors. Then casually ring the old bill and watch them squirm.

haha i like your idea micky, also i think you can start the car with it remining locked (not sure though) anyone any idea on price, also would it mean having a new alarm fitted if so there is proberly no point. still would look good starting the car before getting in it.
