Crazy i was wondering if anyone has done this an now i see this lol, not for nothing but a detailed writeup would be ggrreeaatt and in English also lol

 

I did a similar upgrade on an IS300 that I had 4-5 years ago but it was a complete kit from http://www.advancedkeys.com/Prod_AK105B.html. My only reservation about doing the LS is what happens when the steering wheel decides to lock (like it already does sometimes)? My IS was a conventional key setup prior to doing the change and I simply had the locking mechanism removed (although no one wanted to do it for legal/safety? concerns). I'm not sure the LS would be so easy.

 

Thanks for the link BMW Boy.

I already sent them an email about the fitment and compatibility. Hopefully someone knowledgeable enough would give us a good answer.

Although I read in their FAQ, the following:

Is my car supported?

Has this system been installed on my type of car before?
Both Smart Key and Push-Start system can be installed on all vehicle that equipped with power door lock and uses standard ignition system. Newer vehicle may require steering lock and immobilizer to be bypassed, please consult with your local Car Alarm / Remote Start installer for more infomation .

 

Guess what fellas?!

I sent an email to these he guys who have the kit. And they sent me back an email with a guide for the install on the LS430. This so awesome.

I think I'll be ordering the kit this week and have my buddy Sam fix it up for me.

Here is the link to the instructions:

Hey fellas,
I appologise for dissapearing, ive been busy with my brother's wedding.

I must say im glad to see so much of interest, Plus some usefull informations too.

Im going to go through the wiring and see what i find. ( thx king911 )

Bmwboy- your suggested kit is awesome as it seems but my concern is i might have to replace my stock smart trasmitter or the whole system with the following one. Which i really dont want. My preference is keeping the original system with some mod but if not then this is a good alternative 👍

 

I just got a good deal on a kit from Advanced Keys. Kit number AK-105B, and I also had to buy an immobilizer bypass from XpressKit, part #1101T.

I'll keep an update in my build thread.

Should have it installed by next week.

 

I can't wait to see it installed.

 

Hey fellas,

I headed to japanese market here in uae, all celsiors the right hand version of 430. Goofing around i found a wiring harness going from the passenger side near the ecu's towards the ignition component.



One end went there, the empty one right below the air controller computer.





The other end went to ignition unit, the empty one right below the ignition switch





In between it had this adaptor/relay sort of thing and a self made computer.

The car was cut in half for scrap so i couldnt test the functionality. I have no idea what that adaptor is used for and strange thing google has no much info on it. My hard research gave me a hint its a remote start adaptor. Anyhow i've got the harness, let me know if you guys aware of it.

Cheers,

 

Using Google translator this is wat it means

 

Thx buddy, i guess we need some real deep info than that... M on it too. A friend of mine told me he got the exact same set up from a right hand car and that car came with remote start. He was too lazy to research. Fingers crossed

 

Allright people the harmess which i found is a complete remote start harness. Found this info on some japanese websites and my translator app helped me alot. The relay which i posted above is usually used for remote start purpose. Unfortunately the only thing iam missing is the remote, ive got the harness but couldnt get the remote. Lets see if i can find one online and all i would need is to plug and play the thing

 

Hi fellas. Got the kit installed on my car.

 

Now that is awesome

Sidenote: what do you have going on with audio? It sounds like substantially more bass than stock.

 

Now thats what im talking about!!! .... Great fix bruh... Now we need the d.i.y instrucrions !!!!

 

That's awesome! It looks good too.
