Like more info on this please. How is it programed and how does the factory remote operate all this goodness?
What he said!!!
I'm sure many people will be curious about this as well. Complete wiring diagrams and programming instructions will be added to the site very soon. Also programming will be done through the drivers side door handle lock/unlock button. However all of that will be very clearly spelled out in the detailed installation PDF.

:applause:


Oh boy here we go, one of the best mod PERIOD. Drooling here big time David :D
Thanks Dino, yeah a lot of time and research and money went into making this happen. I think it's going to change everything. :cool:

This Optima only, or will this work on Sonata too?
This will work on the LF 2015+ Sonata as well. However we are only currently taking pre-orders on the Optima & Cadenza at this time. Afterwards we will began taking payments for the Sonata and Forte as well.

[HR][/HR]Also we got in (5) of these units in to test and shipped them out to 5 lucky forum members. 2 of which who have already successfully installed these and have confirmed that everything is working as designed. They will be coming in here to comment on the product and share their experiences thus far. :)

Would this be simple to set up or would I need to bring it to someone for the install as far as wiring goes?
That would depend on your level of wiring experience. Professional installation is always recommended.

+1 like we talked about David lol
:thumbsup:

wow! even better than expected! does the unit plug right into the canbus or does it need to hard wired in somewhere?
This will include a series of cables that will plug into the module shown in the image above, the other end of the cables will be wired into the vehicle.

Average installation time for a professional shop I would say will be 2 - 2.5 hours. For an individual doing the wiring and programming themselves, maybe 4-5 hours depending on their level of experience.
