Car lock/unlock/remote start esp8266 and a spare keyfob

A car remote start/lock/unlock for 2 cars using a spare keyfob. Simply pushing a button on the fob usually shortens 2 contacts and trigger the fob. The same thing can be done with a relay board and an esp8266. Esp must close the relay for 0.5 second for the first car and 1.5 seconds for the second car. The relay is wired normally open (obviously). My relay board is low trigger (bought by mistake) which means when the esp is not sending a command (switch turned off), the relay is triggering, hence, all switches outputs are inverted.
