[QUOTE="2theMaxx21, post: 126476, member: 546337"] Ha ha. $150 installed. Just the labor alone will cost $150. It takes several hours to install a remote start/security system. There are usually at least 40 wires to connect, and it isn't easy working underneath the dash and trying to find all the right wires to tap into. Plus it's even harder if you have a fairly new vehicle that has any kind of stock security system or special security ignition. As a former professional installer, one of my favorite brands of security systems is Compustar. They are very reliable, and have tons of bells and whistles. They hardly ever "false alarm". The remote is a cool LCD 2-way remote that works like a pager. It lets you know the status of your car. It will page you and tell you if your car is being tampered with. And you can easily start the engine, and control the security system from inside any building. It uses a FM signal that can travel through concrete and steel walls. I have Compustar security systems on my cars for several years, and they've never failed me yet. I've installed a lot of security systems.
