    Skip the prox sensors. They are a pain in the ass. I have all dei stuff in my cars and I have never had any issues. I guess if what you had before worked, go with it again. I would just skip the prox. There is to many little issues with them that will give you trouble.

    Any one of our stores install remote starters into manual trans. vehicles. And it still comes with a lifetime warranty.:shock:

    Give Brian a call if your in the Metro area. (651) 587-4019

    I'm familiar with DEI products and Compustar system. I can say... they work great for me.

    Clifford, Viper and Python are all made by DEI. DEI is a pretty solid manufacturer.

    I personally have had experience with the Clifford. Can't think of the exact model, but one of the nicer 2 way pager systems. I recommend the pager's. No use having an alarm, if you don't even know its going off. Especially if you live in an apartment. They eat up the AAA batteries though.
