Important Things To Know About Your Remote Starter

Hey hey hey what is good my internet pals, it’s Gatlin here from CarPhonix, THE place to be for EVERYTHING related to car electronics.

And today, I’ve got a simple question for ya.

What’s a remote starter?

It may seem pretty obvious, right?

I mean, it’s that thing you attach to your keychain where you press the button and your car goes vroom and you don’t have to get your tushie all chilly in the winter, right?

But there’s a bit more to it than that.

People come in and ask me all sorts of questions about remote starters. How is it installed? Why is it important to call around and ask for pricing?

But here’s the trick – pricing isn’t the only thing you need to worry about.

It’s something you’re going to think about, obviously, but here in good old London Ontario, everyone is pretty competitive when it comes to pricing. You might save five or ten bucks here or there, but that shouldn’t make much of a difference to most people.

So yeah, the question you should be asking isn’t “where can I get the cheapest deal?”

I mean look, your car is the second-biggest investment most people end up making in their life, and it’s a good idea to make sure you take care of that investment, right?

So the question you should be asking is this:

Is the person installing your remote starter a certified technician?

Here in Ontario, in order to do the work we do here, you need to have a certification called a 310k certification – Automotive Electronic Accessory Technician.

I got me one of those 310k certifications. And I’ll even prove it! Click here, and go ahead and type in my name, and you’ll see I’m licensed to do this type of work.

But why should you care whether or not your technician is certified?
