Remote starting hack for Tacomas

This is interesting; using a type of mini-computer called a Raspberry Pi (about $45 new) this guy installed remote starting capability in his Tacoma.

 

 

Note that I don’t recommend this, as true dedicated remote starters have extremely important safety features built in.  Still pretty cool use of technology though, and with the proper upgrades and software it could compete with the real McCoy.
