Will the remote climate or A/C remote button work in the winter?

    I know we are coming up on warm summer temperatures but I was wondering if the the remote climate or A/C button on the fab on my PiP advance trim will turn on the climate control to warm up the car when it is butt-cold outside?

    Based on what I've read the answer seems to be no. If that's that is the case, is there a work-around or mod to get it to turn on? Thanks.

    no and no. this was a great disappointment that you couldn't use the wall power to preheat. hopefully on the next gen. the fallback is the heated seats.
