Default Last Mod!!! At least i think so......

Well I ordered my Luxlink today instead of a box of Cubans. Should arrive Monday and be installed Tuesday. Of course now I need to get another remote because my current ones range seems to be about 2 feet.

The LuxLink is a very cool mod! It's the first one I did. I had the unit ordered the day after I got the car.

The remote start is handy sometimes. Being able to remotely drop the top from the FOB is great when you want to show off the car!

The only thing I regret is that I didn't get the option to be able to control the rear windows. I thought about it and decided that it wasn't worth the extra money. But, there have been a few times when it would have been nice to be able to do (cooler days when we're riding with the top down but the windows up).

I wish that the factory remote had more range or if there was some product to improve the range; this would make the remote start much more useful.

The absolute best feature (in my humble opinion) is the double-click for the switch in the car. I really felt stupid holding the switch down for the entire cycle. Now, when I get home I double-click the button, take the key out, get out of the car (hitting the lock button on the door as I get out), and walk away. The top finishes closing, the windows roll up, and the car shuts down...all locked up. Sweet!!

You know whats really silly? I been waiting to post pics of my car until after I did this mod, but the only visible change I've done is the wheels which were the first thing I did. Go figure.
