Valet switch: check the owners manual for the remote starter, or check the manufacturers web site for one to download.

Don't bother with air shocks...total waste of time and money. Air shocks obviously raise and lower the rear of the vehicle. When this happens there is a tremendous shift in body weight which directly affects wheel alignment settings. Factory installed air suspension systems are designed to keep the vehicle level. Add on air shocks don't. If you're willing to check front and rear ride height constantly, (like the factory systems) and adjust the air shocks accordingly, air shocks are fine. The purpose of shocks is to dampen the action of the spring, not to adjust ride height, that's the springs job. Get some good quality shocks and be done with it.

If it's got a remote start, it'll be located under the driver side of the dash.
