That's all I would want it for is for the ac while walking to the car... but the one ekvals linked to claims to use the OEM key buttons, in which case you will already be to the car before you are in range to start it.

I am leary of that one though as it claims to be E53 specific but the pdf file install instructions look pretty darn generic and referred to their remote fobr ather than the bmw's key.
