I would have to say yes, it would work. Based on the same principle that with this system, you can choose to start the car with the key ( if you to leave the ignition in the car). Your installer would just bypass the pushbutton install.
I'm not familiar with your exact current set up- But if you give me some info I can confirm everything. What is your current set up?

The car is stock. I would like to add the ST800 and be sure that it will integrate with the car's factory intelligent keyless system. I am primarily interested in the remote start, windshield keypad, and the self lock/unlock features as you approach or leave the car. I will do the install myself. I just couldn't find any detailed info on the website that would confirm this system as being compatible with a factory push button igniton.
Thanks for any helpful info!

I am confident that there will be no problems. I will give Sean a call tomorrow to confirm.

I got an email from Sean this evening. He will look into making sure their SS800 system (a variation of the original ST800) is compatible with the 07+ cars. Keeping my fingers crossed here.

Still no update about whether the SS800 is compatible with 2nd gen G's. Does anyone have this installed on their 07+ sedan?

Nav

I noticed in the video that the stock nav screen didn't go down when he turned off his car. Is there way to make it do so? Or is there a way to make the car act like it does when you turn off the key? (As far as turning everything off. Like the auto head lights, dome lights, radio, and navigation.)

It looks like a pretty clean install.

okay, so I just called auto-innovatio....i'm considering the st960, it has a few more options that the st800 that are mainly encompassed in the fob (pump the brakes 5x and it will vibrate until you find it, no more batteries as its rechargeable, led notifications on the screen, you can locate your car w/ it as well and it looks waaay better in my opinion). The salesman @ auto-innovatio told me that no matter what, I was gonna have to chip the key...so it wouldn't matter if I utilized an Xpresskit or not....you seem to have found a way around that though?

I'm intested in finding out how well this works so when you get it in let us know. I thought they would be really expensive only there not.

well I know the st800 is a good system, there is plenty of videos on it, and I cant seem to find any bad reviews about it, although the newer system I don't know enough about so I couldn't tell you how well that preforms. My general thoughts about the system ( having never used it ) is that it is a good system to have... although when I field test it ill be sure to post a forum topic about it. although plan on getting the newer 2way model.

The st800 is a great system. I installed mine this weekend with the help of Sean at auto-innovatio. Sean is a great guy to deal with and answered all my questions. I bought the st800 about 3weeks before the new system was released. But Sean told me if I wanted to upgrade at a later date it wouldn't be a problem. I was told that all the wiring is the same and all I have to do is basically swap out the brain and hook up a couple wires. When I upgrade I can sell my other unit with all new wiring and push button aswell.

Wow- this is a pretty great set-up! One thing nobody has really mentioned is a cost...I wonder what I'd pay at a shop to get the unit and installation? (I'm not much of a DIY'er)
