Aftermarket Remote Start 05' Liberty
Ok, my next question is about Aftermarket Remote Start on an 05' Liberty...
I priced around to just have it installed as I'm pressed for time and it's freakin cold out and just want to have it sooner rather then later.
I have the Liberty keyless entry key fobs, I wanted the extra range so I chose to look for a remote start with it's own key fobs - which would give me a range up to a 1/4 mile or so, over the aprox. 100' of just programming the stock Liberty keyless entry key fobs (lock button 3x's)...
My question is I thought that the Liberty (maybe not the 05') did NOT need the extra "by pass module" to be installed along with the remote start module due to having "Chipped" keys...
I got prices all about the same from a choice of local "reliable" installers that I knew of. The thing was once I went to the one I chose, all of a sudden the price was almost another $100 more due to them saying I needed the additional "by pass module" because of the keys on this Liberty are "Chipped". Not know for sure and since I was there and my recent hectic schedule - I just had them do it....
I'm just curious now - was this a bait and switch, that I got take for a ride for another $100 for the additional "By pass module" and Install, or is it really required/needed for the 05' Liberty w/keyless entry key fobs ?

Next - I'll be looking into adding the Floor/ Under dash lights (with incandescent bulbs), to be able to add INTERIOR LED's lights WITHOUT the dim/low light problem...
