I just bought my mother-in-law a remote starter, the same one I just intalled in my car last week, DEI Valet 562T. I cannot seem to find any credible sources online that can tell me for sure whether her 2002 Toyota RAV4 4WD has a transponder system or not. I don't really trust design-tech.com because they had my Elantra listed as having a transponder and needing a bypass module, which is completely false. The dealer was no help. RAV4 forums are no help. Any of you BB, CC, or local shop installers have any idea?

So I guess this is it?
I took a bunch of pics so you guys can see for sure and let me know if this is a transponder module. It looks like it, but I am not sure.

Both wrong! Now I am pissed because I listened to Circuit City's web site and design-tech's web site and I spent $40 on this stupid bypass module yesterday, which was stupid of me. So tonight, I was still unsure and desided to go to Home Depot to copy the key and see if it would work. And it did start the car. I wish I had done this first. $1.87 is a hell of a lot better than $40! [Mad]

Ya neither cars need transponder bypass modules. Only the Canadian Elantas have immobilizers.

You are only as good as your worst install.
