When I had mine installed (early Spring this year) there was one "extra feature" that the "main" Igla guy in the US, who is the distributor for Author Alarms, had figured out how to add / program in. That was the CarJack feature, but he charges a LOT of money to teach your local installer how to do it. "Proprietary information" etc

So most of the local installers don't bother cause why waste nearly 5 figures on something they might do 10 installs a year on and probably will never see that returned.

If Igla allows a key to be programmed, it'll be exactly the same as all the other keys programmed, but you still need to enter the PIN every time you want to start the car.

To my knowledge, the only things that will bypass the PIN requirement to start are:
Service Mode
The Igla supplied FOB
Igla fails / removed from the vehicle
