Exclamation Good remote start for 06 durango?

Hey everyone. I am looking for a good remote started for my 06 Durango. Is there anything that might just plug in with a wiring adapter so I dont have to search for hours trying to find the right wires and cut them and possibly screw something up? The dealership of course has a bunch of different ones but they are all super expensive. Also I do not know if my model of Durango, the XLT, might have some sort of factory security features I need to be careful/aware of. My remote is the basic "built into the key" thing with Lock/Unlock and Panic on it. That's all.

Thoughts or suggestions please?
Thanks,
John

This one is expensive and your dealer must install it, but it should have a warranty on it:

Either of those cost a ton of money. Isnt there anything out there for maybe 100 or 150?

There are stores that do it here in the Pittsburgh area, but I would assume it would be in the $200.00 plus range. These stores are vehicle customizers such as wheels, tints, and exhausts and I bet there are a few in Illinois,

Also I have read about something called a "sentry module"? The thing seems to cost about an extra 50 bucks above and beyond the cost of the remote start. What is that sucka for? And is there anything where I could use the keys with the keyless entry system I already have or would most/all require a seperate transmitter just to start my truck?

I think that the sentry module will not work as your key probably has a security chip,
