Do you know the part # for OEM REMOTE Start

Sorry, I don't know. My car came with a dealer-installed remote. Search the threads by Shibumi who does this for a living or contact him by PM. Good luck!

So when I was going to do this, on the L11 plus the Red and Gray Can wires weren't at pin 15 and 16, am I missing something?

SO I am getting a 2007 LS460L (pretty sure I am), According to the 2 parts this is about $65 and 4 wires ? For real ? I MUST have this !

What type of range do you get if it's only like 25 feet away, any way to boost it ?

My LS430 that I have had for almost 13 years had remote start from DAY ONE....it's one of those "CANT LIVE WITHOUT" things..

Honestly, any questions you have about this device )or like devices) or any of its capabilities, Shibumi1 is to "go-to" guy. As AC stated above, he does this for a living and is incredibly knowledgeable! Great person!
Shoot him a PM and he'll get back with you. He's up late and up early...he is ALWAYS working!!!

When i did mine went smooth. Works like a champ. But honestly i don't use the remote start unless i hit the button 3x by mistake. So its just another toy to say i have.

Good luck.

It's good for about 100 ft or so. No way to make it longer range. I use mine all the time. Especially in the Summer to cool the car down after siting all day.

Yea, it's kind of a mandatory thing for me !

About a 100 ft or so, should be fine in most cases, I guess I need to replace the batteries every summer so the range is the longest. As long as it will work from the window in my house (about 30-40 feet away from the car), I should be good !

Well, put it this way...whatever your range is now, is exactly what the range is for the remote start, since it's working from the same system.

Factory remote seems to work pretty good. So I ordered from the ebay guy that will program it for my 2007 LS460L. for the 3x start...

Now I just need to find out exactly what wires I need to tie into...

I showed exactly where in a write up and included pics. In the meantime, do a search, and I'll see if I can find it too.
