My 2011 SSV RPO code reads (AP8 -REMOTE VEHICLE STARTER PREP PKG) what does that mean? Can I get the proper key fob and have remote start work?

According to this thread...
AP8 just means you can get remote start working, but you need an 'activation code'.. I wonder if they just flash your BCM. Apparently the 'kit' to install remote start even includes a sticker to cover your AP8 with an AP3... Someone else recently had issues getting AP8 remote start to work.. @Nutro

In the above it clarifies … “AP8 is the remote entry system but with all the provisions for the AP3 remote start option.”
I will say that Direct electronics DEI or Clifford products are good stuff. All the products they installed in my 90 VW in ‘95 are 100% backwards compatible with what they make today.
The remote start and alarm on that 5SP M VW still works flawlessly.
