it's all up to you, just know that installation for a remote starter isn't cheap unless you have a hook-up or know how to install. the 1st link seems to have more features.

 

yeah i have a hook up. and yes i like the first one as well but what's the quality of scytek?

 

that idk cause i don't use those type of systems but just look around for some reviews which is all i can tell you.

 

i have been and nothing.

 

how about a viper alarm?

 

overpriced.

 

so i got one vote for scytek. i need more help deciding.

 

how about zenesis? check this out

More price but really nice

 

DO NOT GET CODE ALARM. I installed them for years and they are garbage. They always have problems. I also had one on my car at one point....POS. I don't know anything about the other brand but I would recommend a DEI product such as Viper, Python, Clifford. I have the Python 990 and love it. Very reliable. I install DEI products now and never see problems.

 

yeah i know DEI is good. my friends have scytek but the horn is ____ty i guess. so i called up scytek and they said the horn is 120dB which is pretty loud but it's not weather proof maybe i'll just look into get a horn with it too.

 

i really want a clifford but i don't have that kind of money.

 

I have a viper 771 and love it.
The range is decent and it has everything i need

Is this a good deal??

 

link doesnt work

ANy alarm is only as good as the installer who puts it in.

When I got my alarm installed the sensistivty was set perfect but the antenna wasnt that great.
Had to move it.
I thought my remote start function was wasted till I moved the antenna


Also I dont see the reason for the 1+mile range
Most people dont park a mile from thier cars.
My remote has worked from everywhere I have tried.
I know my limits thought.
It wont work in the middle of a mall but it wil work by a window/door in the mall.

rant

 

I want something that will work at work and places like malls. link was for a python 1090 for 350 shipped.

 

good price but you gotta get installed.

If you know someone cool

I dont see the need for the color display or aything like that but you probalby dont agree with some of the mods ive done.

I say if you got someone to put it in go for it,otherwise install will be another $200 + bypass module ($100)
so roughly 300 more for install

 

I would say neither. Get a Compustar or a Viper.

Remember, you get what you pay for.

 

that seems like a decent price, but you have to find someone to install it after you get it. A lot of shops won't install alarms that were not purchased through them. If a shop does do alarms not purchased through them they will likely only do brands that they sell.

You're right most people don't park that far away but you have to think how that extended range helps the signal penetrate better so that you receive signals better inside buildings etc...

 

i'm going to get a clifford matrix 70.5x for $298.00 shipped anyone know of the range on this?
