Works! Completely doable DIY!
Programming was a little tricky. Spark programming needed a computer. I got it to work on the second time through. Watch the utube videos linked.

Simple install, little programming involved.
Purchase this for my kid's car. Searched all kinds of places, brands, etc., found all of them disable the OEM key fob unlock after install, if the remote start is active. So not a bad purchase.Install: Very easy.Programming: Took longer than the install itself.Overall: I am happy that the install was easy, the programming was pretty easy. The only thing I don't like, not being able to unlock the vehicle "after a remote start" with the fob. My kid is happy, looking forward to using it.

Not amazing but gets the job done! Doesn't get more simpler than this.
Like others said, it doesn't come with a keyfob. If you have the LS, you'll need to get the keyfob online, cut and program it (instructions are in the owners manual). Took me longer to drive to the locksmiths than to cut and program. All Sparks have the same body control module and only your drivers side door will unlock. Like already mentioned, you can't unlock the Spark when the remote start is running. This install took me 45 minutes from start to finish. It was very straight forward with the online videos and the manual. You'll need a 7mm socket to get the panel off. There is another kit that has keyfobs but is a lot more in price. For how easy this was and straight forward, I am happy. I also emailed them on a weekend and they responded promptly. I would recommend this to other owners considering the cost savings and DYI.

real easy to install and worth it
so it was real easy to install a few connections and that all ... what I didn't like is the fact that you need to hook up a little device to bypass the cars security system to ur PC { and I mean windows computer } to download software. I hate the fact that start-x remote IS NOT iMac/apple compatible.....I went crazy to find someone who had a windows laptop to finalize the install ..But after the install I did notice that I can't unlock the doors with the remote it has to be done manually with the key and I don't know for how long it stay on for.. I know stock remote starters turn off after a few minutes but I guess I'll find out.

This is awesome. Works just as stated. Easy install.
If you have an LT model Chevrolet Spark, you couldn’t really ask for anything much easier to install. Works exactly as described. The only thing that they didn’t tell me that I would’ve liked to of known is that when you take out the fuse box, there’s a clip on the right and left side that must be pushed in that allows it to slide off its housing, the video makes it look like it just slides off easily, but those clips must be pushed in. It took me way longer to get the software downloaded and installed than it did to install the hardware into the car but that had nothing to do with the product itself. Best thing I’ve purchased in a long time.

Company stands behind product
This product did not work for me. But, the company gave a full refund.

It works, but be prepared to contact support
To be fair, the supplied instructions are quite adequate for the basic install, and it probably would deserve 5 stars for that. My install however Included an rf long range remote. I took a picture of the rf remote model and sent it to start support for model specific instructions. Apparently the didn't read it close and sent me instructions for a similar model rf instead of for the model I had...turning a 2 hr install into a 4 hr install, utilizing several support emails. Do yourself a favor if u go the rf remote route and double check the install instructions match your model number rf remote kit before attempting installation. Overall I am happy with the kit...support could be better, as I felt I did more of the troubleshooting than their support specialist. If you have a 2012 to 2015 model, dash removal will be slightly different than their video and will require a Phillips screwdriver and 10mm deep socket...and small hands would be helpful. Best of luck
