It’s a DIY-friendly upgrade that preserves the original remote, respects factory safety behavior, and avoids buying a separate aftermarket remote while letting you pre-condition the cabin for comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this kit work with my Toyota model and year?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Start-X kit is made for specific Toyota models equipped with push-button start and conventional gasoline engines.
