I am wanting to know the cheapest place to buy the factory remote start setup for the magnum? 300 is about the best i've seen didn't know if a supporting vendor had a better deal or if anyone knew of a good place to get this.

Sorry, I didn't see your post earlier. There were 3 on ebay today for $100.00 plus $10 shipping to include remote start and install kit "new". I bought one but one ended with no bid. May go back up for auction. I hope I didn't get scammed.

Why was this option cancelled from the factory?

YOu need two parts. You need the Remote Kit and you need the skreem ( what ever its called ) interface kit.
I have seen them for about $260 ish. Dealers typically sell them for $300 ish and installs depend on how badly you get raped.
I got both kits and install for $460 which was an ok deal as its about a 2 hour and change to install.

I got a full kit from ebay for $150 and it took me less than an hour to install it. Look around you'll find it, just make sure it's the two kits, not just part of it.

I actually just bought one off of ebay for $150... factory sealed condition, still thinking about installing myself or having dealer do it. Check out ebay there some going on there right now, as we speak.

Everything went great! All new mopar parts came complete in less than a week. Already installed no problems.
Jason, if you've ever installed your own Head Unit (stereo/cd player) then the install for the remote start isn't much more complicated. It includes instructions, follow them and you should be A-OK

Anything special required for the "transponder key"
Is an extra key required like aftermarket starters?

Im assuming the Maggie Starters are the same for the 300's?
What are the two parts needed for the kit?

the mopar kit includes a SKREEM interface module which takes the place of a hidden tranponder key.

Mopar part # 82208859 and 82208995AB
It comes in two boxes. One contains the unit itself. The other contains 2 remotes, a piece that snaps onto the main unit so the remotes will automatically be programmed to it, the SKREEM, which learns your keys so an additional key is not neccessary, and the harness and such. Yes, this works for 5.7 mags and 300c.

Correct. I have only seen one place that was selling one without the other but be careful when shopping that you are getting both.
