[QUOTE="nuugen, post: 6244780, member: 565870"] Directed has resolved most of the issues of the first two gens of Responder series products, The 5901 is an LC3 product and a fine piece..I love Directed products and have been installing them for over 20 years, but when the first Responder generations hit the market there were a HOST of issues! Ask any Directed installer if you don't believe me... You probably have a resistor chip in your key, the car is fitted with a VATS system from the factory...There are several ways to bypass it, the easiest is basically just finding a matching resistor for the one in the key and wiring to a relay to work during remote start..DEI and other companies sell the resistor packs or you can pick one up at your local electronics stores.. You can safely install two sirens/piezo's on the DEI siren output, any more than that and I would install a relay...What really draws attention is hooking up the horn honk in addition to the siren(s)..I have 1 siren and piezo up front(most ppl don't use piezo's outside, but it makes for a unique sound coupled w/the siren), one siren in the rear (in case the car is not facing me), and the horn is hooked up to full alarm output only--it doesn't sound on warn-away or arm/disarm... And PLEASE make sure not to set your system too sensitive---alarms get such a bad rap b/c some paranoid jerk sets it so sensitive that sunlight sets it off!![IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/verymad.gif.3f39c5c2fd57527b671fad3efdfac756.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
