I would imagine the install factor depends on lots of factors. Such as:
Do you have an automatic or manual JL,
Do you have power locks,
And any other options.

With the Electronics that reside in the JL it could be a matter of flashing the computer and programming the Key. Or theyd install their own kit from mopar.

And if your JL is a manual installing them becomes a lot more complicated due to the neutral bypass needed for the clutch to start it. So an aftermarket might be the better source. However its hard to say if they will have a security interface for the JL since its still very new. My personal advice would be to call a Jeep dealer and just see what they say amd get a quote.

I did this for my wife’s 2014 Sport so I figure they have this for the JL. If you have remote door locks and power windows you can do a factory remote start. The parts are about $230 with two new keys and dealer install is $200. They have to flash your ECU, so if you have an AEV or other program on your Jeep, you will have to redo it. The factory remote start is nice!

The parts you are talking about are those for your wife's JK or for a new JL. I'm in the same boat currently.
