New here,

I have a 16 F-350 SRW PSD lariat value package and I want to add a remote starter to it. Did a little reading and ordered the one from 12 volt solutions. Just looking to get some install info, time, difficulty ect.

TIA!

Why do aftermarket? I bought the key, antenna, and wire for around 150$ if I remember right. Fairway ford parts was selling them online. Then go into forscan and enable it in the bcm.

I had the key cut at autozone and programmed in forscan even though you can program it easily at the column.

Took me a couple minutes to pull the headliner down a bit over the driver seat and plug in the antenna.

Here is the install document. Ignore the glovebox part. The antenna is above drivers seat in 15-16, glovebox for 11-14. Almost all trucks already have hood switch, except XL models. You can easily check yours.

Here is a link to just the antenna part for $30, then need just 1 key and forscan. Done.

Wat he’d the instructional videos on their site and he says only the one isn’t you don’t have automatic lights which I have and the other is for the long range remotes which I didn’t get so I put a call in to support. I’ll see Monday. I’ll update here.
