If you have to pay to remove it the labour would likely be more than it is worth.
I agree with this. Unless it is some really high end unit to justify the expense, you're going to likely get hit pretty hard on labour as most shops are going to want to avoid doing the job in the first place. You'll likely need a new security bypass module anyway. Might as well start with a new unit under warranty.

I had my old unit completely taken out already, and when asked for an install into the new vehicle they said the difference would be less than $50 for a completely new system. Unless you can DIY the install, just buy a whole new system.
Go see or call JB automotive on the west side of 170 St just south of 118 Ave in Edmonton. They have been doing my vehicles since the late 80s. Sometimes it is cheaper to swap them, sometimes cheaper or better to just put in a new one, but at least with JB they give you the straight goods. These guys even fixed a 25 year old install on my wife's Forerunner, no charge, as they warranty their installs for life.
The remotes are cheap, its the labour that kills a guy. Considering there would be more labour to remove the existing one I see it costing the same if not more to switch it over then to get a new one.
Most technicians only know a few certain brands/models too so you risk getting someone that doesn't know the model and has to figure it out.
