Remote start

[badpewterz]

Ordered non take over. All plug n play. And no splicing.

Ordered non-take over with smart phone app. Hoping the app is better than UVO. It is supposed to arrive Friday. Thanks @bogie for running with this.

 

[bogie]

Will share instructions.

Takeover or No Takeover?

Takeover or No Takeover?

No Takeover.

Just install it. Directions are straight forward. Took about 30 minutes. I didn't remove the panel behind the glove box. It was easier to just remove lower panel and reach under. I can make an video if anyone have issues. But overall it was easy.

And does it do everything you wanted? Satisfied?

So far yes, a bit more expensive for a remote start. But it still better than paying for UVO.

 

[CJ_313]

How many connections?

Just two. Three if you want to add range

Thanks for the insight about the panel! A video would be great if you have the time. I messaged accessorides about some questions and they said that a YouTube install video was coming soon! They told me that accessories like heated seats would not be turned on like you can do via UVO but I think worth the trade off.

Glad to hear positive results. Thanks @CJ_313!
Now the question is, who will be the first to report performance and install feedback for the 2-wire takeover?

 

[Chainblade]

How’s the app and what all can it do for those that got the app version?

I’d like takeover but would like to see instructions or a video first before purchasing. Anyone gotten takeover yet?

I just wish 2020 owners could have it installed by Kia as it was on some 2020 models (ie UAE). I had it for 12 years on 4 different jeeps and with the native remote start the seats would turn on too (at least I imagine they would). Guess you can't have everything.

You mean heared steering wheel and defrost controls with the app? I don’t think heated seat control is even an option on the kia access app at least since 2020.



But if you have an SX AWD, the seat heating/ventilation can be automatically controlled by the climate control anyways. So a third party remote start can still technically control the heated seating theoretically.

Official video out. Non-takeover plug and play looks so... easy.
