[QUOTE="customcamaro, post: 376494, member: 551518"] Yeah not only does it depend on the car but how well the instructions for the alarm are laid out. I installed an alarm/remote start in a 99 grand am gt and it was definately not the easiest thing i have done. Unfortunately the directions were kinda lacking in their description and i was playing the guessing game more than i was following precise directions. It is possible to be done, however plan on spending quite a few man hours to complete the project as well as some extra cash for all you neccessary equipment. One advantage of doing it yourself allows you to set it up to your liking. For example the remote that i was installing was designed to turn the car on but not run the heating and air system. Since i was doing it myself i was able to bypass this and set it up to where the heat and air would operate normal as long as it was set prior to turning the car on with the remote start. Make a long story short, it is possible but will take a lot of patience and a little know how if your directions are lacking in the technical end. Might be worth it to have it professionaly installed if you value your time. [/QUOTE]
