I bought an OEM remote start kit for the Fusion yesterday 100 Series remote start
It hasn't yet arrived, so I may be getting ahead of myself by asking some of these questions. But looking through a 'how-to' thread on the Fusion forums, there is something called 'Securilock' that this Fusion has (I have no idea what it is). The remote start kit comes with a metal transistor ring that gets glued onto what looks like the outside ring of the ignition switch. Does that sound odd, or has anyone dealt with this? The rest of the wiring seems pretty straightforward. A couple of harness clips plug in at the column, and the other 7 wires needed are all called out and located pretty well on the diagram I looked at online. I went with OEM because I wanted something I knew would work well, and because the included FOBs are do darn small. I hate keychain clutter. Any tips in installing a system like this would be much appreciated.
