Remote starter

what would be required to hook up a remote starting system?

and would it be possible to hook it up to the factory keyless entry system... say like the hatch button was turned into the starting button...?

1) go to www.yahoo.com
2) type in REMOTE START
3) press ENTER

You'll be surprised what you can find using simple search engines...
