Sun Visor Garage Remote

[GTsteveMkII]

Hey guys, just wondering what your thoughts are on getting the factory American garage remote installed on our Australian Model. Would it be a hard job to do and would it work?



Cheers, Steve.

It depends on your garage door and how easy is to program another remote. As long as you can program any remote (you can find out in the manual of your garage door) and the frequencies match, then you'll be fine. First thing first I'd check whether it's 315 or 433 MHz and they both match, before I try anything else.

I looked into this a while back, unfortunately it wont work due to different frequency to us

Where do you get these from, would be interested in having a crack at it. Will stop the kids pinching my gate remote and losing them at $85.00 a pop...... Assume it can be fitted into the drivers side visor?

C'mon [MENTION=19128]Gnome[/MENTION], you are the proven solutions man!

Don't give in that easily.....

I'd love to somehow make it work - sick and tired of fumbling for the remote.

If your garage is already on 315 or 433 MHz you can create your own mobile app or smartwatch app to open the garage like I did

Edit: Using a microcontroller and an RF transmitted hooked up on your home network

300.00 USD for the visor is the killer in my book, if they were more reasonably priced then may have given it a go. The double sided tape method is starting to look pretty good, and guaranteed to work on Aus spec cars too.

Yeah it's funny how the list price of a part skyrockets as soon as it becomes popular.

Same thing happened with the GT350/R steering wheels.

Supply and demand I guess.

OK [MENTION=7882]Drewbo[/MENTION], just for you I will give one of these a try, if I can't fit it in the Mustang I can glue it to my ride on mower, still cheaper than buying a standard remote from Liftmaster.
