OEM or Audiovox AS9076 will use the factory keyfob. Otherwise, there are plenty of systems out there depending on how much you want to spend and what features are most important.
If you are talking about the OEM system, it uses the "lock" button (press twice and hold on third depress). Range is so-so and the engine will shut off when you unlock the car to get in (Toyota safety feature). There are plenty of threads if you want to search for more info.

...the main problem on the OEM in my mind is not that it turns off when you unlock...my main problem is that when I sit in the restaurant and want to switch it on to warm up the car (very nice at chilling 0) I never know if the car indeed got switched on. Their is no light or anything on the mfg fob indicating the car has been successfully switched on - at least mine does have none.

do you have first hand experience with that audiovox unit? i tried looking, but i cant find any reviews on it..
so the OEM remote starter shuts thre car off when u unlock the car/open the door. will it do that if i get an after market one too? say like from clifford/viper?
It's really not that a big deal people make out of it...the purpose is that the car gets warmed up and it will. Having to push on the brake pedal and push the knob to start the car takes less time than buckling up. If I enter my car it's a simple and always the same procedure....

i got the aftermarket carbine alarm. I got it for 350 w/ installation. ignition kill, remote start AND off. So if I'm running in to grab something real quick, I can leave my engine on, and lock the doors to get whatever i need. come back out, insert my key in while the engine is still running, and drive off.
i always feel paranoid about starting, shutting off, then starting my car again. Myths say it wastes gas and like, it might be bad for ur engine to shut it off and turn it back on immediately?

Yes, very convenient indeed, I agree....just never do that in NY, you want have your nice mod'd car for too long...it takes seconds to open your car door and conveniently the car is already running.

i've always wondered about that. if the car is running and doors locked but the key isn't in. but someone breaks in, are they still able to easily drive off? don't you still need to reinsert the key?

Can't tell you how all the Camry work here...don't have a key to insert on mine ...so, mine would just be driving away
