Radio on during remote start

Well, currently when I remote start my car the deck does not work, which Is a good reason I suppose because most wouldn't want there system bumpin when there not there, but i tend to listen to a lot of music when im parked and sitting out side the car, especially up at the cottage, so that means I have to leave the keys in the ignition which makes me have to sit next to the drivers door the whole time. Or when I just leave the car running on remote start and run into the bank my firends still wnat to listen to music but dont let them because i never leave my keys unattended.

Long story short, how would I Make sure the deck is on when I remote start the car?

ohiojosh78 can only hope to improve
Hook your decks remote wire up directly to the battery. You'll just have to turn off your deck every time you turn off your car.

It wont start because your key isnt set to the accessory position, thus not giving the reciever remote any signal.

Unless you can find something that turns on when you start your engine whithout using the key. it doesnt draw much juice at all so if you can find anything at all just stick the wire in and see if it works

i hooked up my own remote start and when i did the radio turned on instead of the ac. depending on the alarm you have there is a wire for secondary ignition. since hondas dont have that you can hook it up to the radio wire. i think its the red and whit one in your ignitoin harness. if you hooked up your own you will know what i am talking about
