Remote Starting

[Keano]

I had a HAWK one on my old mk2 clio.

Unfortunately left it in gear and accidently started it. All i could do was wait for the 5 second count down, then watch it launch into the back of my mother's Audi A5.

Useless piece of kit! (infact i think i have a video of it starting somewhere  )

They used to be linked to alarms but if you fit one of these devices they now void the thatcham certification of your security system and thats why they are now sold as a seperate item.

I know they used to be available linked to an Alarm....possibly made by Clifford but cannot find anything now....

Pre Heaters are available but are generally only sold in really cold climates where the Oil Freezes and the Oil etc needs to be kept warm when the outside temp is lower than -30 or thereabouts

On Audi's you can get pre-heaters which warm the cabin and seeing as the MK5 / A3 share the same platform I wondered if you could retro-fit it to the Golf
