The kit was roughly $350 I think, and installation roughly the same. I'm sure install cost will vary from shop to shop but the company told me any reputable shop that does remote starts should charge from $300-$500 for an install. They also have a list of dealers on their site.

Looks great!
I've never thought about updating my 911 to comfort access.
My BMW's (especially my M5) have taught me that there are several completely useless things that I hate to admit I like.
Rain Sensing wipers
Comfort Access
Air conditioned seats
Active seat (active side bolsters)
To name a few.

Thank you for posting this. Looks great and that seems like a reasonable cost for the convenience. I too have been spoiled by other cars with proximity locking, push button start, etc. and this would be a nice add.

active side bolsters may be my favorite part of my 7-series

someone posted earlier that removing the cylinder takes care of the steering lock issue, as for the immobiliser issue, I assume that will be the same issue you would have with a remote start and easily worked around with an extra key that you sacrifice. The vendors website says its good for all cars, hopefully there wont be any stumbling blocks.
i ordered it and its being installed next week hopefully, i'll report back on whether it was a success or not

Thanks bull, but that sites push button requires you to still turn the key then push. I'm looking for a "never pull your key out of your pocket" solution.Later, Steve

Sweet setup modquence. The company also has the **** switch start: http://www.advancedkeys.com/Prod_AK104S.html
It might be a great compromise between having the latest conveniences and having the traditional twist ignition start on the left.
