Auto Start for C6
Hello,
Does any one know if I can get an auto start system for my C6? I'v seen mod's to open the windows before getting in the car, But I was hoping for one to get the A/C working before getting in.
Thanks for any help

probaly shouldn't
Consulting a corvette only shop close to you should net the best result in terms of quality and what your looking for. About 80% of my shops work orders are repairing vettes that are victims of stereo or tuner shops. So stick to the forum vendors and you should get some solid work done.

I'm not sure how you'd do that remote start thing. The Fob must be in the cockpit to get the car to start.
Also, in my 2005, you had to park the car with the transmission in reverse. You might be able to defeat the switch that requires the clutch to be in for the car to start, but it wouldn't be good if you did start the car with the transmission in reverse and the clutch engaged!!!
In my Z06 I don't have to park it in reverse, but I always leave it in gear when parked.
Good luck with it, but it's not something I'm interested in!

That is a good question. I don't know if it can be done in the C6 because you need the fob to be in the car. It would be nice to be able to cool or heat the car before you get in.

Thanks All
Thanks Everyone,
Looks like I'll have to settel for just opening the window to let the heat out before I get the car open.
I'll keep looking and see what else I can find out.
