Hi fellas ok I was trying to find the thread some where in here on this topic and couldn't find it.
So lucky me a new "Super Trucks" shop just opend up less then 5 min from my house and now I am working on some fun stuff for my truck.
The guy that owns the store well his son has my exact same truck but it has a 6'' lift. Very sweet.
Ok I will stop rambling but he had the auto remote start for his truck.
My question is witch kind should I get? Brand? and is their anything else I need to get for this to work.
I am looking at the
Scytek Galaxy 5000rs-2w alarm/start combo for vehicles with automatic transmission. or this one witch is more but i have no clue it can be used in a diesel. But this below looks like the mack daddy of them all.




car-alarm-remote-starter-Prostar-OLED-2-way-LCD-pager witch can be found on this site.

I am so clue less to witch one to get. I am willing to get the higher brand since I expect this to last me. I also think you get what you pay for, in most cases. see the pic below...
Yall got any tips for me

 

HI Angie. Long time no see.

I've got the Viper 791XV on my truck and it has worked well. About to upgrade to the 3900 system when they get the bugs worked out of it. Viper and Clifford are the two most popular and are the exact same unit so its just a matter of preference on the appearance of the remote.

 

I got a Prestige alarm system on my truck.

its a two-way LCD remote stat and security system with command confirmation.

Its real nice it has alot of features like remote start, turbo timer, you can program it to start any time of day, see how warm it is inside the cab anytime and has a range of 1400 feet. and it works for diesel.


That one you are looking at should work for diesel trucks cause it looks like a top dollar product.

How much are they charging you for it?

Viper is good, but they only give you one remote, you will have to buy another one for 60 dollars. and from what i heard from the guy who installed mine he said that the viper system doesent use the horn when it goes into alarm, just its siren.

 

The spare remotes can be had on eBay for $20. My systems sets off the horn because I had them program it that way instead of the siren. I flip my train horn switch on at night before I go to bed and then arm it. Viper is the leading system on the market and most reliable. No issues with mine after two years. BTW- Prestige and Clifford are made by Viper (Direct Electronics Inc).

 

On ebay it is going for $300. that was how I found found it. I love ebay and I am smart shopper making sure i see there ebay score and read up on the seller. I like all the fun stuff on them..

 

How much are they charging for install?

 

Word of caution though. Most manufacturers will not warranty or repair a unit that wasnt installed by a licensed dealer. Buy it on eBay and then find the proper dealer to install it.

 

I have the Clifford G5 on my truck, it does everything you could ever want it too. I have never had a problem with it. My alarm installed was around $1,950.00 but it was well worth it.

 

I am not sure on that part yet.... Hmm I wonder... The owner of the Super Trucks store above me showed me what he had in his son's truck and the the 2 way he had and would charge me a little over $400 for the remote ect. Not sure on the installment. He said I would have to get something else also and my mind went blank to what it was... I would let them install it most likely.

YUIKES!!!! that is allot... but I am sure it's worth it.
I have a nefew that just graduated from a tech college for a diesel mechanic wonder if he could do it? hmmm oh well guess 1st i will get it then scope out prices on the installment afterwards...
