yeah are u sure about that. Did u call the company and ask for the closest compustar dealer? The only bad thing about it is that you cant just buy it at circuit city or best buy, you actually have to buy it from a registered dealer/installer. Well you can always use the touch/die alarm or the hidden C4 under the car

Hey Jess! how did the install go? do you like the new alarm?

This may be true, but I bet the same cheap $60 mod wont let you start the car when is blazing hot outside and have the air runnin for you

I bet that same cheap mod wont page you when someone door dings your car so you can come outside and catch them.

BRING IT VIRGE!!!

You have the option of the keychain or the belt clip. John and I both use the leather belt clip. It is alot more convienent.

Anyone here have experience with them? I've heard only good things about them, plus their a certified Clifford dealer, that's why I'm going with them.
Just sucks that this alarm is still analog... I've heard of a full digital version of this alarm coming out soon...

The remote does not bother me at all. If it werent for the remote attaching to my hip, I would likely forget it somewhere. IF it were on my keychain, I would hate that because I hate having heavy keychains which will end up needing to be stored in my pocket when not being used.
