Default Remote Start for C5's?

by chance does anyone have, or know of someone that has, a remote start feature on their key fob?

DEI (viper) is the best system IMHO. They also makes the VATS bypass so the system will work properly

just a quick question, when you had then viper installed, did the "easy entry" memory seating still work like it did with the original fob ?

On some cars yes, the installer must have the very expensive fob programmer. The one I went to did not. But the two remotes both use memory 1 as entry #

Sorry I do not have an answer for you on this. My Vette does not have the memory seat option.

you might find that many remote start offerings are actually made by Bulldog Security - and OEM'd to other mfgrs.
Guy at work brought in a Viper Passlock II bypass module. We took the cover off and it said "Bulldog" inside.
