Lets you open and close your windows using your fob. I use it all the time in parking lots. Its so much easier getting in the car with the windows open.

Nice features.I wonder why that isnt something that can be programmed with a hand held device? I was able to do most of those in my 370Z and the window was already programmed into the fob. I do like the features but dont think I will spend the money on the kit as Im get ready to do my cam and need estra maoney for hotel room and all as I have to drive 7 hrs to get to a shop that works on vettes mostly. Nothing in or around El Paso that I trust or kow about for cams and tunning.

Now you need V1 with Dashtronics. They have a splitter that allows both their HUD display for V1 and the Window Valet to work together.

I really like mine, Not only does it open the windows,it will also drop them about 1/2 inch if you hit the lock button 3 times to help let the hot air out. Plus, and I pushed this feature while it was being developed
If your car is locked and someone tries the handle, it will beep the horn 3 time as a warning.

Great product, everyone should have one.

It will also tell you how fast (top speed) your car was driven during the last (previous) ignition cycle. Very handy to check after your car has been left for service or loaned to a friend or family member.
