    I installed a Fortin remote start on my 2014 expy. Cost $99 for module, and $ 40 for flash tool. Works off existing remote. You hit lock button 3 times. I installed myself. Works great. Glad I did..

    Aftermarket Remote Start

    I installed the Fortin on my 2014. Fortin uses existing key fob, depressing lock button 3 times starts vehicle. I didnt want an extra key fob in my pocket. Under $100 on amazon, $40 for flash unit. Fairly easy to install.

    remote start install

    I did not hook up the heated seats. Maybe that setup was in flash module, not sure. I dont want to disconnect the module to try. The remote start works. I'm happy. If you are able to enable heated seats, please post how you did it. Thank you.. scott
