Where Do I Start? Shopping for a Remote Starter

Ok, so you want a Compustar remote car starter to heat up your car. What are some of the things you should consider first? Here are the top 5 things you should think about:

1. Your Dealer
The most important aspect of having a satisfying shopping experience is having an experienced, professional remote start retailer/installer. Great dealers will help you find the remote start system that best fits your needs, and they will stand by their workmanship to make sure you are completely satisfied with you purchase.

Use our online dealer locator tool to find an authorized Compustar dealer near you. Each of our dealers have received hands-on-training by our staff on how to professionally install our systems.

2. Your Car
Compustar remote start systems lead the industry in vehicle compatibility and coverage. Even so, you should consult with your local authorized retailer to discuss any additional components that may be required for your vehicle.

3. Remote Range
Are you remote starting your car from your home? From your office? From inside the mall? Getting an aftermarket remote starter opens up many options to add an extended range remote to go along with it.

Compustar remotes can communicate as far as 3 miles away. But there are also many affordable options that also add a lot of range as well.

4. You Get What You Pay For
Prices on Google do NOT include installation, which means that once you receive the product, you’ll have to find someone who is willing to install it. Most high-quality retailers will not install products purchased elsewhere simply because they cannot guarantee the quality of the components.

When it comes to your car, don’t cut corners. Find a solid retailer with installers who know what they are doing, and purchase your remote starter there.

5. Your Smartphone
All Compustar remote starters are compatible with DroneMobile, which allows you to start your engine from your iPhone or Android smartphone.

If you’ve read through this article, you will have avoided the mistakes that have left many drivers annoyed and cold. Contact your local authorized Compustar retailer and we guarantee that you will not be disappointed with your next Compustar remote car starter.
