My boss bought me one for addvertisement purposes. I love it. It took me about 4 hours to install it and haven't had any problems with it at all. Of course...this isn't my first and wont be my last install either. I like the new key fobs that came with the kit, and the standard antenna is pretty sleek too. I'd go with the Ford Genuine Accesory Kit. I love it!!!

I have viper and I love it. There are two ways to bypass the ignition chip. Do it the right way. Don't get the little box that holds your spare key in the steering column

I got various quotes ranging from 200 to over 600 I paid 225 for the install that included the bypass module.
