do remote starts work in sc400's as well?
I want to buy/hack/build a remote start and keyless entry system that works off of bluetooth so as i approach my car it unlocks, and if i want, i can start it on my phone
that will be the first of many james bondisms in my car
didnt even realize you can do that. if you build it keep us posted!
but I called lexus here in canada and they want something ridiculous for the remote, like $500 or something. find out your FCC-ID (on a box under your passenger side rear window panel) and get a used remote with a matching ID # for like $60..

Im working on the system right now. Well i havnt actually started, but im brainstorming and working out how its all going to work. I think im going to use a regular aftermarket remote start/keyless entry, and cut off the RF receiver and install an arduino board there. Some custom programming and electrical tape...a week later my car is aware of my presense...or at least my phones
EDIT:I dont want to threadjack tho...believe me,when its actually started, there will be posts, pictures, and writeups.

Yea i know what you mean. I called a lexus dealer here in Cali and they quoted me for like $450. ridiculous
Not to change the subject , but I think my key crapped out. Lately I had to start pressing the button on the key like 12 times to make it work. It finally stopped working , thinking it was the battery. Changed that , and still doesn't work . Any ideas ?
it depends on the year of your car. the earlier sc's cannot be programmed with another remote; you have to buy a new remote with a new chip and replace your existing chip in your car. google sewell lexus, they sell parts for cheaper than the other dealers.

yeah sewell is a great place. I'm only 26 miles from them
Why don't you want an aftermarket alarm? This doesn't make sense to me
