@DEMONX great job reviving this thread. I bought everything I needed and then ended up trading the 2015 IS250 for a 2016 IS300 before doing the install. Can you post where and how difficult it was to get to the connectors? the one that baffled me the most was the PTS button one.

I have work on cars for a while so idk if that made it easy for me but I think anyone can do as long as they know which connectors are the ones you need to work on.

The PTS button part was the easiest one. Here is a quick idea on how to pull the dash piece to get to the PTS button.

First, pull the bottom (marked with O right), work your way around unclipping the plastic dash. Once you have it all off look for connector right behind the push button ( I posted a picture on how the connector looks).

After removing thiis plastic piece, you will need to unbolt the air bag holder (10mm socket require), once you have done that put the air bag in place where it won't be on your way (do not disconnect the air bag)..

2015/2016 should have ability to remote start from factory, it's only the 2014 that cannot

@DEMONX Thank You

@SpecONE, only for US DM models equipped and subscribed to Enform and with the App installed and configured. Once the Enform subscription ends, the ability to remote start ends too. CA and EU models do not have Enform, so no ability to remote start by app or by key fob.

Demonx thanks for adding to this thread. This is very helpful. I'm planning to install this at some point in the near future. How long does it take start to finish?
