iDataStart CMHCXA0 Plug & Play Remote Start for Volkswagen / Audi

We are here to help you find the right solution for your vehicle. Here are some answers to the questions you may have before you order something from us.

We aim to provide you with a solution for a reliable and easy-to-install system, not just "moving boxes." Our listings, where the product allows, are based on the most common options that you may want to use. You will notice the price of the prebuilt packages is lower than adding the same products to your cart separately.    

With so many options available, we can help you build an A La Carte Solution compatible with your vehicle if you are unsure what system to choose. Click the "A La Carte Solution" link to submit the request form.

If you are looking for a different product or solution that is unavailable here, please get in touch with us using Chat or the Contact Form.

Before Installing a Product - If you decide to install any products sold by Shark Electronics on this website, you must review the most current Product Guide, Installation Guide, User Guide, Owner's Manual and any other vehicle-specific notes available on the manufacturer's website. You are solely responsible for determining if you have sufficient technical knowledge of your vehicle's systems to avoid installation errors that damage expensive vehicle components.

Damages - Shark Electronics is not responsible for any damage whatsoever caused by an installer to a user's vehicle, including but not limited to any direct, consequential or incidental damages, damages for loss of time, earnings, business, profits, economic opportunity, and the like that may result from the use, misuse, improper installation or operation of its products.

Shark Electronics is not responsible for any damage arising from or caused by a self-installer to the product or the vehicle, including any direct or consequential damages whatsoever. By performing a self-installation of any product purchased from us, the user releases Shark Electronics from any claims for damages it may have or may arise as a result of the self-installation.
