Our take on the Firstech iDatastart HC2352AC-GM10 Remote Starter for Select GM SWC Models 2006+

The Firstech iDatastart HC2352AC-GM10 is a remote start and keyless entry kit for select 2006-and-newer GM vehicles with steering-wheel controls. It pairs an integrated immobilizer bypass in the system brain with a GM10 T-harness, so the install is largely plug-and-play on supported models. The FM remote system reaches up to 3,000 feet and uses your existing 5-button OEM fob; two-way confirmation and DroneMobile smartphone/GPS control are optional add-ons. It fits automatic-transmission vehicles only and is not universal, so check the compatibility list before buying.
