Although I did not install it myself (seeing as it was only a little more to have it installed professionally vs me doing it for the first time with a guide) I had this done today, which I consider the most important "mod" for those living in snow/cold areas. 
Little background pricing info:
This remote start system which implements the usual car-shuts-off-when-door-opened safety cost me $415 installed
Dealership quoted around $800 for a generic model starter and $1200ish for digital screen which does same exact thing as generic one. Only start and door locks. My dealership also outsources the work to a local shop to pretty much do the same work as what I had done else where on my own terms but at a much higher cost and different parts..
Edit: worth mentioning that for some reason my dealer was not going to use the mazda remote starter you see online in catalogs for some reason ??
