Compustar Prime Remote Start Upgrade on 2019 Honda HR-V

By

A client from Anchorage, Alaska, brought her 2019 Honda HR-V into our shop, looking for a new remote start. As with all of our projects, we started this install with a check-in using an iPad, which includes taking photos of the interior and exterior, checking the functions of the vehicle, and performing a battery test. We then put a battery charger on the vehicle with a fender cover to protect its paint from any scratches.

During the install, our techs solder every connection and wrap the wires in electrical tape, followed by using JK Tapes — a cloth tape similar to the type used in a factory — to clean up the install.

We installed the Compustar Prime G15 remote on this customer’s van, along with the Compustar Drone. The Prime G15 is a two-way remote with a maximum range of half a mile. “Two-way” means that the customer will be alerted when the vehicle is started, locked or unlocked through an LED notification — even through a push notification when using the Compustar DroneMobile app.

When our client came to pick up the vehicle, she was smiling and so excited to be able to continue to stay warm all winter, and stay cool in our hot summers.

If you need a new autostart, contact us here at Perfectionist Auto Sound and Security, or just stop by and one of our sales associates or technicians will be happy to help you.

Long-Range Compustar Remote Start System on a 2018 Honda HRV

By

A customer came in looking for an autostart for their 2018 Honda HRV. They had never had an autostart before, so we walked them through the differences between one- and two-way remotes. “Two-way” means they will be notified when the vehicle is started, locked or unlocked through an LED light, audible tone or LCD screen — even through a push notification if using the Compustar Drone. “One-way” means that the remote will still start the car, but it will not give you any notifications, so you would have to see the car to know that it started. We also talked to the customer about what kind of range they needed and if they would be using Drone, the app for your smartphone that allows you to start and stop your vehicle from your phone.

After talking with our customer, we decided to go with the RFX-P2WG15-SS, a two-way remote start that has a two-mile range. We installed the system using our standard procedure of checking all of the vehicle’s functions on an iPad, plugging it into a battery charger after doing a battery test, and soldering and taping all of the wire connections. After we completed the install, we double-checked all of the vehicle’s functions and vacuumed the interior as a final step.

The customer was so happy on picking up their vehicle, knowing that they would be warm every morning and not have to go out into the cold to start the vehicle! If you are looking for an autostart for your vehicle, feel free to give us a call or to contact us here.

Anchorage 2008 Honda CRV Backup Camera And Radio Upgrades

By

A client from Anchorage came to Perfectionist Auto Sound & Security in search of new a 2008 Honda CRV backup camera and new Pioneer 4200-NEX. Our team spent time with the client, getting to know them better and how they used the 2008 CRV, and looking it over with them. Then we spent time on looking at products that we thought best suited their needs. We worked up a proposal for the client that they liked, so we set an appointment to do the work.

Our team installed a Pioneer AVH-4200NEX DVD player in the dash to replace the original unit. We used a camera that frames the entire license plate, placing it on the top center of the frame. After finishing the installation, we went over the operation of the products with the client, and they were pleased with how it worked.

If you would like to add a backup camera to your vehicle or upgrade the stereo system, we invite you to stop by Perfectionist Auto Sound & Security or contact us here.
