Good afternoon Tom,
You posted that these kits are already available (minus the "bump"), who would that be? Thanks David |

Auto Atlanta sells them. They are in the catalogue for $25.80. They use a Bosch relay very similar to the one I used, just made up to be installed near the starter. Look for "hot start relay". Page 128. My catalogue is several years old, so price may be up.

Finally completed the hot start relay and added the remote start switch. Mounted the relay under the trunk floor near the starter/solonoid so the wire runs would be very short. Then I mounted the momentary switch in a small metal box with a speaker magnet attached to the opposite side of the switch. The remote switch can be attached to the interior side panel out of sight or , when needed, stick to the grill.
Big thanks to Tom for illustrating the wiring and parts needed. So far, so good. Here's a few pics of the set up.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Attached image(s) |
