I'm thinking about selling my 2006 Honda Ridgeline. I live in Anchorage.
Before moving to Anchorage 3 years ago, I had my mechanic install an engine block heater. Then, 2 years ago, I had a local certified reseller install a remote start system.

These two features are much loved in Anchorage (everywhere in Alaska, really). And in some parts of the state the block heater is a must-have (cars won't start without 'em). So, despite the advice that aftermarket features don't increase a vehicle's value, I still feel like these two could raise the value somewhat over Kelley Blue Book (at least in Alaska). But I can't find anything online that will help me estimate by how much. Any help?

Block heater? Probably not much. More cars than you'd think come with 'em and just don't use them.

Remote start maybe a couple hundred. Again, anything new comes with remote start.

block heaters are like $25 when you buy your car.
