Well I am pretty sure its not the key but turning the ACC on that unlocks steering wheel. As long as its wired right itll work.Originally Posted by youngin3

interesting
A remote start is different then a push button starter...
Remote start will shut off if you hit the brake a push button starter only starts if you have the key in place or a certain transponder chip in the car you cant sit in a new mercedes without the chip and hit the push button start. But if you have the chip u can hit start and drive.
A remote start is purely for warming up cars and looking cool at car meets like Roman who was like yeah Ill start my car when everyone else was just sitting in theres to start them
It uses the same concept though and I don't think he used a transponder key to do this one. I think he still has to turn his key to the ignition position to drive the car.
7Gs had Transponders? either way there are ways around it if he wired it right. There would be no real point, besides running out in winter and warming it up I guess, to this then if he cant drive without putting his key in.
Um I don't thing 7gs have Transponders lol.. matter a fact iam sure

Need to post some diagrams of the install.
I do not think this is true for our cars, may be true for newer ones but not ours. Haven't you ever noticed if the steering wheel is locked and you try to turn the key, its kinda hard to get the key to turn so you have to pull on the steering wheel a little bit to get it to turn? Its happened many times to me.
So there has to be a mechanism in the steering column that is linked to the ignition.

I thought it was proven a while back that only the 2000 and up 8G's had transponder keys. Theirs that one guy that has the tampa blue galant that has a regular walmart cut key for his....Im pretty sue it was badmitsu, his is a 99
