Radio Accessory Power

I have an '08 Dodge Ram 1500 and have successfully installed the AVIC-F90BT using a wiring harness. The wiring harness supplies the accessory power but my question is concerning my factory remote starter. When I remote start the engine the radio does not come on, therefore I'm trying to find power that would work with either the accessory power or the remote starter. I checked the cigarette lighter and it does not work when remote starting. Anyone have any suggestions?

 

The wiring harness used is the Scosche CR03SR.

I'd say the remote start is designed not to start the 12v power, you don't really want to start your car during breakfast and have it blast out music while you eat your breakfast right.

 

I see what you want to do though, i'd say post a message on a Dodge website, they probably know the specifics better.
