Remote Starts, Alarms, and Dash Cameras: Upgrade to Modern Comfort and Safety

Installing aftermarket electronics upgrades your vehicle with the exact security, convenience, and safety features you actually need, without the expensive dealership trim-level markups. Here is why aftermarket electronics are a smart investment for your vehicle:

Tailored Convenience: Add premium features like long-range or smartphone-controlled remote starts to completely eliminate freezing winters and scorching summers

Superior Security: Factory anti-theft systems are basic; aftermarket alarms, hidden killswitches, and live GPS trackers offer active protection and real-time tracking that stops modern car thieves.

Modern Safety Tech: Instantly modernize older or base-model vehicles by cleanly integrating high-definition dash cameras, wide-angle backup cameras, and parking sensors to eliminate dangerous blind spots.

Remote Start
Packages

At Car Pretty, we offer professional installation on one-way, two-way, and smartphone-controlled remote start systems. By partnering with the industry’s most trusted brands—including Compustar, Viper, and Avital—we stand behind our craftsmanship with a lifetime warranty on all installation work. Discover which system fits your lifestyle:

1-Way Remote Starters

How it works: This system allows you to start your car using a compact aftermarket remote or by programming it directly to your existing factory key fob (e.g., press lock 3 times).
The connection: The signal travels one way—from the remote to the vehicle. Because there is no confirmation sent back to your key, the vehicle must be within your line of sight so you can see the parking lights flash to confirm it started.

2-Way Remote Starters

How it works: Built for ultimate reliability when parking out of sight, this setup uses the same concept as a 1-way system but features an upgraded aftermarket key fob.
The connection: The communication is a two-way street. Once your vehicle successfully starts, it immediately transmits a confirmation signal back to your key fob, alerting you via a built-in LED light, an audible chime, or a notification on an LCD screen.

Smartphone-Controlled Systems

How it works: This premium upgrade gives you the ability to start, lock, unlock, and monitor your vehicle from virtually anywhere in the country right from your phone.
The connection: Because the module inside your vehicle utilizes advanced LTE cellular networks, your range is completely unlimited. As long as you and your vehicle both have cell coverage, the signal is guaranteed. (Note: Smartphone integration requires a monthly or yearly cellular subscription plan).

Alarms, Kill Switches, and GPS Trackers

Factory security just isn’t enough to stop modern car thieves who use smart tech like key-fob cloning. If you drive a high-target vehicle, a custom ride, or a work truck filled with expensive tools, basic factory anti-theft systems leave you vulnerable. Combining an aftermarket alarm to scare off break-ins, a hidden kill switch to physically stop the engine from starting, and a live GPS tracker for instant phone alerts puts total control back in your hands. It is the best way to protect your investment and give yourself absolute peace of mind, whether you park on the street or in your own driveway.

Why a Dash Camera is Your Best Witness

Investing in a dash camera is one of the smartest upgrades you can make for your vehicle. They offer an incredibly cheap, effective, and foolproof way to protect yourself from costly road disputes and insurance scams. Here is why a dash camera is the ultimate insurance saver:

Low Cost, High Value: It costs a fraction of your insurance deductible and has zero monthly fees.

Instant Video Proof: It completely eliminates “he-said, she-said” arguments by providing clear video evidence of accidents, hit-and-runs, or parking lot damage directly to the police and insurance companies.

Stop Premium Hikes: Staged accidents or false blame can spike your insurance rates for years. Video proof protects your driving record and keeps your insurance rates from skyrocketing.

Clean, Automatic Protection: When professionally hardwired, the camera hides cleanly behind your mirror, turns on automatically with the car, and leaves no messy, dangling wires.
