#2 of 101 99 Camry LE by big_evan06 Dec 04, 2002 (6:07 am)
I was just wondering if all of the 99 Camry LE's are equipped with the VIP security system. It seems as though mine should be but it came with no remote. Can someone please give me some info about this?

#4 of 101 Remote Starter by andrelaplume Jan 09, 2004 (9:00 pm)
Does Toyota make a remote starter for a 2002 Camry LE? I would want something installed by Toyota that would not void any warranties. I already have the remote entry option. Any info is appreciated.

Replying to: andrelaplume (Jan 09, 2004 9:00 pm) Toyota don't make remote starter. They only have keyless entry (no alarm) and V.I.P. RS3200 security system (keyless and alarm). I have one installed by a local auto stereo guy. I have an '03 Camry SE with factory installed keyless entry system. And I have this Auto Mate (by Directed Electronic) auto alarm system plus remote starter. Since your Camry has no alarm system, I suggestion you consider the alarm (for auto insurance deduction) with starter remote. Or you can just add a remote starter in your car. Of course, this is an aftermarket accessories. Toyota will not cover it if something happening. My co-worker has an aftermarket alarm installed somewhere. His Accord has a recall on transmission. The repair was free, but the dealer charged him $30 to disconnect and connect some wires. Replies to this message: andrelaplume (Jan 27, 2004 11:47 am) lok888 (Jan 28, 2004 1:53 pm)

Replying to: lok888 (Jan 26, 2004 9:40 am) Yea, my dealer said the same thing, Toyota does not make one. They did reccomend a local shop to install the remote starter ($250)...still I'd feel better if it were something Toyota stood behind...THANKS! Replies to this message: lok888 (Jan 28, 2004 1:53 pm)

Replying to: andrelaplume (Jan 27, 2004 11:47 am) The cheapest one that I found in my area is not more than $200 installed. Well, you can buy one of those DIY remote starter from the department store for less. But I am no expert in auto alarm system.
#8 of 101 keyless entry by vtimm Mar 02, 2004 (3:59 pm)
I just bought an '02 Camry LE and it has the power locks and VIP protection. Does anyone know what is required to make it into keyless entry: part numbers and estimated prices?
#9 of 101 keyless entry by vtimm by bronzemaxell Mar 02, 2004 (7:04 pm)
OEM VIP and aftermarket alarm can give you keyless entry function. if you are missing the remote or the remote not working on your car, you probably just need to get a remote reprogram it.
#10 of 101 VIP Protection by andrelaplume Mar 03, 2004 (7:25 am)
not exactly sure what that is but if it is in effect an alarm, installed by Toyota you should have Keyless Entry. Did you buy at a dealer? If so they should give you the preprogramed fob to unlock your doors and trunk. If a private purchase or if the dealer tries to rip you off you can look on Ebay for a fob. I saw a post on how to program it somewhere here on Edmunds...it was a little conveluted but worth a try before likely paying an hour's labor at the dealer.
