VOXX Electronics is now shipping its Bluetooth CarLink system that turns your smartphone into a controller for remote start, and also turns the phone into a spare key.
The system includes CarLinkBT, a Bluetooth module (ASCLBT) that is installed with a compatible remote start and/or factory keyless entry system. Then you can open and close doors and remote start the car without a traditional transmitter.
CarLinkBT communicates with VOXX’s smartphone app to lock/unlock and start your vehicle (within Bluetooth range – approximately 75-100 feet). Users will also have access to the CarLink Insurance Discount Program for potential money saving insurance discounts with up to 19 different insurance carriers.
The CarLinkBT module will now also be included with VOXX’s Prestige PROCORE remote start. Prestige PROCORE is a “one-module” solution allowing dealers to build any style of remote start with various features without stocking multiple complete kits.
The CarLinkBT Module (ASCLBT) is available now for a suggested retail price of $69.99 with a one-time fee of $7.99. No monthly or annual fees.
The Prestige PROCORE with CarLinkBT (APSFCBT) is available now for $349.99

- E-Call Service – provides 24/7 access to make a one-touch call a dedicated Emergency Response call center in the event of an emergency.
