Car Remote Starter Kit for Mazda 3, 6, CX-3, CX-5, CX-9, MX-5 Miata | Push-to-Start & Key Blade Vehicles | Plug & Play Install | Use OEM Key Fob, Press Lock 3X to Start | Zero Wire Splicing

This Start-X Remote Starter Kit is a great upgrade, especially if you enjoy the luxury of not climbing into a car that feels like either a pizza oven or a walk-in freezer, depending on the season. The installation was very easy, and the plug-and-play setup is a big plus. I really like that it works with the original Mazda key fob by pressing lock three times, so there’s no extra remote to lose, forget, or accidentally send through the washing machine. Once installed, it works exactly like it should: simple, convenient, and very satisfying. It feels like one of those upgrades you wonder why you waited so long to add. Being able to start the car before getting in makes a huge difference, especially on rough weather days. Overall, this is a great product, a useful upgrade, and a nice way to make your Mazda feel a little fancier without requiring a butler named Jeeves.

Awesome buy!! I have been begging for remote car starter for over 20 years (never been wealthy enough for that type of Luxury in a vehicle) and my fiance finally made all My dreams come true by purchasing this one on Amazon for Christmas! It was super simple to install. He had it done in a matter of 20 minutes if that, and it works like a charm. Hot or cold all I have to do is hit the lock button on my original key fob three times and it starts. It actually works from quite a distance. I used to be able to start it from inside my work and we were the second suite in a brick building with the parking lot on the end. I also love that I can get out of the car, and start it with my fob that way it can be running but the doors will still be locked. On my car if it's running and I get out I cannot lock the doors and therefore someone can easily jump in and run off with it, but not now! Now if I need to just run in the gas station really fast or want to warm up my car in the mornings I don't have to stress nearly as much about somebody possibly stealing my vehicle. I really cannot praise this thing enough. It's been over 6 months and It was worth every penny!!!

This remote starter works great on my 2021 Mazda CX-9. Installation is very straightforward and only takes a few minutes.

Easy install plug and play. Works well -range limited to your original keys range. Click 3 times to start- no exterior lights turn on though when car starts I thought that was odd

I just installed it yesterday. When I say that was so simple to install and program . It works perfectly, I would definitely recommend buying this item.

I installed this module at the start of 2022 on my Mazda 3 2016 hatchback I sport and it has worked perfectly for the past 4 YEARS I would highly recommend this thing it’s amazing and great for winter time I don’t have to leave the house to start it and when I get in it’s nice and warm and ready to go 10/10 will get this for any other car I have in the future super reliable never had an issue and from what I remember it was such an easy install plug and play indeed looks amazing because no wires stick out so it’s truly a must have mod pricey but worth every penny if you use your car every day !!!

So easy to install and it works with my existing key fob!! What more could you ask for?

First let me start by saying I install remote start systems as a business. I usually use Fortin products. This is basically a rebranded Fortin Evo product but it actually is much easier to install and doesnt require the Flashlink Updater, at least for the Mazda version. I literally got it installed and working in 5 minutes and took another 5 minutes to tidy up the wiring and zip tie everything. I prefer the lock 3 times so I can hear the horn honk twice to know the car received the command. If you don't want the honking, choose the lock unlock lock version. It does support being able to unlock and takeover without shutting down the car on my 2019 Mazda CX-5. Absolutely happy with this purchase. Thanks.

Works great! Nice easy install. Programs itself in a few minutes once’s installed. Securing the wiring was the hardest part. Highly recommended. Update: discovering a bit more about this unit. It is a Directed Ds3+, startx units typically are fortin units. Adding an rf kit the viper d*** kits are required, the rf kits/instructions on startx site are not compatible . Assuming the increased price is also related to “directed-Ds3” unit being used. Still working on adding the rf kit. Assuming with the proper kit I should be able to be this working, was just surprised on the brand used in this case. Lock 3x works great so far.

Works awesome. 100% plug and play. No splicing into factory harness and works off factory remote. Super easy install.

The whole install took about 20 minutes, only tools needed were a 10 mm socket (to disconnect the car battery), a #2 Philips screwdriver and a small flathead screwdriver to help unlock the tabs on the two wiring plugs under the steering wheel. There are several good YouTube videos covering this installation. Watch them and you will see how simple and quick the remote installs and programs. After you have the two sets of wires connected and reconnect the battery, the unit essentially auto-programs itself. That process takes about one minute. You have to reprogram the drivers window by opening, then closing it all the way shut, and that is it !! The remote start kit uses the remote controllers that came with the car. They are automatically programmed. To start the car, just press the Lock Button 3 times in succession. The car will run for 15 minutes after it has been started. I highly recommend this remote starter kit. I wish I would have ordered it in September. It was minus 24C here when I installed it at Christmas (outside on the driveway). BRD

Installed on a 2020 Mazda CX5 signature. I am very pleased with this product. The cost is very low compared to OEM products installed at the dealership. The fact that it uses the factory key fob without an additional accessory is greatly appreciated. Unfortunately there is no ability to adjust interior climate controls such as the rear defrost or heated seats but for the price it is still worth it to be able to start the vehicle remotely. Just remember to set the front defrost to come on when parking the vehicle. The install was relatively easy. It’s a bit challenging to secure the power module under the dash due to the limited space and positioning but overall it was as simple as the video indicates. Took less than 30 minutes. Not sure about long term use since I just installed and started using it but I highly recommend this product.

Very easy to install, took less them 15 minutes. Works well with both my wifes and my remotes for same car. Just be careful, put your drivers seat all the way back if it's powered and turn your steering wheel 90 degrees, before you disconnect the negative terminal of the battery, this will make the install simple.
