Close door and use one of the aftermarket remotes to unlock or start the car. Factory alarm will start up.
Be ready with the key to unluck the door or factory fob (electric door switch and aftermarket fob won't work) to shut the alarm off.

I've known several people having problems with aftermarket remote starters – including my brother. I don't want anybody messing with the electrical on my 03 though...I can deal with the cold for a few minutes. At least my butt will be warm.

the trick is on remote starters, get good ones, and make sure it has a good warranty....also make sure it is installed by people who know what they are doing.
