Would the ScyTek G40 (G40RS) work with a 1998 XJ? (Automatic I-6)
Here is a link and if anyone has used it, is it good?
If anyone knows of a good $50 or so remote starter please share. Doesnt have to do much except unlock the doors and start the car.

There mostly all universay... I ran the viper remote start on my 98 Cummins diesel... it even waited for the glow plugs to warm before it started... $300 installed... controlled all my locks as well... never tried a El cheapo version...

 

Ok and my other question is: is there a bypass needed for xjs? Or does the key have to be left in? Anything funky?

 

No key... once its running by push button you put the key in and go to the on position not the start... to shut it off without the key just hit the brake... or the key fob should turn it off as well...

 

Alright thanks. How hard are they to wire?

 

I am thinking about the installing a similar, if not the same, kit but I don't even have a keyless entry as of now. I do have the little microchip above the black bubble on the front of the headliner though. Would these kits work for me?

 

I got my mom a starter for christmas and asked about one for my jeep. They said it would be 250 to install and it would bypass my stock keyless. Im a little hazy on the install part but wondering if this would be a problem when i hack up the wires. (sorry for the thread jacking)

 

nah youre fine, i just bought that kit and i have the same question. im a 1998 XJ though so idk but i have keyless now

 

I got free install for $300 so I didn't worry about it... I can't see it being the same color wire in the same place on every vehicle.... I sure as heck didn't want to mess with it... trailer wires are one thing but you cut the wrong wire (like a wire with built in resistance) your screwed....
