I would do a factory remote start if possible.
I am sure most of them are trouble free, but I have fixed quite a few pia electrical problems in my day due to this stuff. I walk out in the morning, and start the cars for her and I.

I agree. I installed several units. They worked well for years then the trouble started. Always at the worst time. Removed most of the jobs I did. I run out in the morning and run back inside and let the car warm up.
