Mitsubishi OEM Remote Starter

Mitsubishi OEM Remote Starter
Has anyone there installed the Mitsubishi OEM remote starter on your Outlander? (NOT Outlander Sport (RVR in Canada or ASX in Europe/Australia), the Sport has to use the newer design OEM which comes with it, aftermarket ones won't work for the sport.)
if yes:
1) when using it to start engine, does the hazard light flash/blink once when engine starts like the starter manual claims? or What indication does your car react once engine starts (lights, sounds)?
2) how many of this OEM remote starter fobs come with it? (each car comes 2 F.A.S.T. keys)
3) what is the design/average distance for the remote to start respectively with and without the little antenna stretch out?
4) which market/country is your Outlander in, year model and trim?
thanks a lot for your inputs

Never did, never will.
I still have to clean the vehicle don't I.
That is usually used by people who drive Igloo in the winter (Don't clean the car). Seen mostly on Honda and Chrysler mini van.
Also most city have a 3 minutes max. idle rule so the Mitsu dealer set it to run no more than 3 minutes then shut down. With the Outlander aluminum engine this is a waste of gas.
If you need to warm the inside just use an electric heater on a timer.

Its possible to have a after market one, but you might have to sacrifice 1 FAST key, at 250$ a key not shure you want to do that ; )

I used to warm up the engine about 5 to 10 mins., max 15 depending one the temp. and snow before i leave the house during winter, to ensure a smoother drive, also i do not have a garage, not for the purpose of the interior warm though.....of course if the engine well warm, that may warm the interior easier....
yeah, the FAST key is a bit pain in the neck when pair up with a remote starter....that's why I desperately wanna know other owners experience with the OEM engine remote starter.

I'm not sure what the range is with the antenna down as I always use the antenna. However, I'm sitting in my office now and can see my Outlander in the parking lot about 200' away and it starts no problem.
The only indication of start I get is from my DRLs.
I'm happy to have remote start, however, I don't like the fact that it comes with a separate key FOB. I also don't like the fact that the car shuts off as soon as you unlock the car when touching the door handle.

I believe it only works for 09-after-models only.

EDIT: Of course, I only talking about the OEM remote start.
But does anyone has some kind of manual about "how to use the remote start" or its features?
