Professional Remote Car Starter Installation
The certified technicians at Sound Electronics have decades of experience installing and testing remote car starters on all makes and models. The installation comes with a one-year guarantee and will provide you with seamless remote function capabilities.
Traditional Key Fob Starts & Cellular Starters
A traditional key fob starter includes a one-push button that starts your car and warms it up. You could also choose a more advanced remote car starter that includes smart app technology. Through an app, you can start the car, check the status of the vehicle, and control other functions like heat levels or defrosting. With the app starter, you do not need to worry about carrying an extra keychain and the distance away from the car doesn’t matter as long as you have cell service or a Wi-Fi connection.
iDatastart Remote Starters
Unlike traditional remote start systems that depend on third-party interface modules, iDatastart systems incorporate proprietary built-in vehicle data bus and immobilizer interface technology. This design eliminates the need for additional accessories or expensive keys during installation on most vehicles manufactured from 1988 onward. iDatastart has many upgrades including GPS tracking, remotes, smartphone control and is covered by our one-year parts and labour warranty.
Viper Remote Starters
We also carry Viper remote starters. Products like the Viper DS4 include Bluetooth technology and has compatibility with their Viper 2-way remote starter key fob that connects to the vehicle up to one mile away. Bluetooth connectivity gives you status updates directly on a phone and provides the latest remote starter technology to help modernize your vehicle.

What decides the price of your installation
Every installation starts at $449 including parts and labour. What moves the price is the vehicle — push-button start and some newer vehicles need extra interface modules — and the features you add: a two-way remote, smartphone control, security or GPS tracking. Our remote starter cost guide breaks this down, and we will always confirm the price for your vehicle before we start.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does remote starter installation cost?
Remote starter installations start at $449 including parts and labour. The final price depends on your vehicle and the features you choose — see our remote starter cost guide.
How long does a remote starter installation take?
It depends on the vehicle and the features you choose. We will give you a time when you book — and it is worth booking ahead once the weather turns.
Can you install a remote starter on a push-button start vehicle?
Yes. Push-button vehicles need an interface module that communicates with the vehicle's electronics. It is routine work and part of the installation.
Can a manual transmission have a remote starter?
Yes. We fit additional safety provisions as standard on manual vehicles so they cannot start in gear.
Will a remote starter void my vehicle warranty?
A properly installed remote starter should not affect your vehicle warranty. Problems come from poor installation, not from remote start itself.
What is the difference between a one-way and a two-way remote starter?
A one-way remote sends the start command; a two-way remote also confirms the vehicle has started, so you know it worked without seeing it. See one-way vs two-way remote starters.
Can I start my vehicle from my phone?
Yes. Smartphone control is available as an add-on. It lets you start the vehicle from anywhere you have cellular or Wi-Fi service, and can include GPS tracking.
