I vote remote start. My Viper 2-way was a bit on the expensive side, but well worth it. $700 installed at Best Buy

What the??? The 5301/4204 should be a little less than 500 at Best Buy even with the Immobilizer Bypass. Glad I put mine in for about 250 dollars.

The only reason I went with them, is because they warrant their installs for life... Maybe overpriced, but I'd rather have that warranted, unlike some sheisty little audio shop. Personal preference I guess.

i had my subs and speakers installed at two different shops and got lifetime warranties from both shops for their products, and some shops arent as high class as others. a big franchise down here is cartoys, they have shops all over town and are a big company. now i dont know how theyre customer service is and if they are a company to be trusted, now this is hear say...... but i hear they are a very good company
