I heard about it on fifth gear... so was just googling my time away and came across the vendor's website... was wondering if anyone has ever used it?? and how easy is it to instal it (given the wiring diagram provided)....
It does really handy ... probably will end up playign with it all day :)

So if you loose your phone or have your phone stolen, do you loose your car as well?

Security and lazy issues aside, isn't it illegal in the UK to leave a car idling in a public place unattended? I think that this killed off those after market devices which allowed the car to run for a period after ignition switch off in order to allow turbos to cool down.

I also don't see how this will bypass the immobilisor relying on reading the embedded key security code via the ignition switch.


Oooh perhaps you have to leave your key in the ignition :)
