These 2 products on Amazon. They're cheap and have good reviews.

Avital 4105L 1-Way Remote Start System with 4-Button Remote
(https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BHQ1YQE/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1)

Avital 3100LX Security System (W/O Siren)
(https://www.amazon.com/Avital-3100LX-3-Channel-Keyless-Entry)

My question: does "keyless entry" mean it doesn't start the car remotely? Does "remote start" mean that it doesn't necessarily open unlock the door remotely?

I'm looking for something that does both: unlock doors, and start the car, remotely.

The car is a Yaris 2-door liftback LE 2014.

Got any recommendations?

Thanks in advance.

Based on the ads for these products:-

The Avital 3100LX is a keyless entry system. It allows the doors to be locked or unlocked from the remote. There is also the facility to disable the starter when the doors are locked.

The Avital 4105L has the same functions, and adds remote start.

Thank you.

Can Avital 4105L be installed in a 2014 Yaris LE 2-door, do you think?

The page on Amazon includes a link to the manual.

Unfortunately, this only describes the operation, and does not include installation instructions or a wiring diagram. Hopefully the installation instructions would be included with the unit, or could be downloaded from the manufacturer's web site.

If you can find this, you would have to determine if it is within your capability, or if you would need to pay an auto electrician to install it.
