Ordered part and pd cash then changed my mind

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NY (leased car in NJ)

On 3/1/2010 I leased a new car. I wanted remote start. Paid cash for my remaining down payment ( credit card deposit $1000) and paid separately for the remote starter that had to be ordered $540. On 3/3/2010 I stopped by and told them that I really didn't need the starter. Told he would have to check with manager to see if I could get my money back. In 3 yrs I would buy a new car if I really wanted to buy this model. I might want something else as I will be 60 at that time.

Doesn't one have 3 days to change their mind?

Can I call the credit card co as it is more than the part?

there is no 3 day right of rescission for this type of situation. The merchants policy on cancellations and refunds will control.

You will lose that merchant chargeback as the original charge has nothing to do with your dispute

The 3 day or cooling off law only applies to door to door, and vacation rental purchases.

$540 is quite a ripoff for a remote starter, even if that includes labor, unless it's a very high end one that heats the coolant with an electric heater.

Did you receive the starter yet?

If it's shipped direct to you, you can refuse to accept the shipment from the courier. If they can't prove they successfully delivered it to you, it would be difficult for them to justify charging you for it.
