I think a remote start is often used or installed in cars to warm up your car in winter, but i dont think ppl here drive their Lexuses in winter so i dont think you will have too many answers but good luck!!
I drive in the winter and I have a Viper alarm/remote start. I wanted the remote start mainly for the winter but I use it during the hottest summer days. Although my windows are tinted very dark and I use a sunshield, the car still feels hot to me.

Yes this is very true. I swear that it drains the battery quicker than the batteries in my cable box remote.
You might be able to pick up one for about $180 to $200... Try one of your local electronic shops. I got mine for $300 installed, and thats a few years aback... Yeah the battery life isnt that great... change every month I would say... AAA's are cheap!
Compustar. Have been using their systems for nearly 10 years in all the cars. Love them. The new one on the GS has a bigger remote, and uses AA battery. Only thing that bothers me is it kills the bat every month. I have a little pack of batteries in the car though.
sorry off topic..but when u have a regular 2way alarm for the viper, is it possible to just ADD on the start engine remote feature? or do i gotta buy the whole set again?

Depends if that feature can be added on to that system. Also, extra components will be required.
