I got quoted over $1000 for a Compustar Alarm install? Is that too expensive?

if it didn't have so many features it would be cheaper, that price isnt as outrageous as some may think. A nice viper with no add ons except what is in the box at bestbuy can run you 600.

Hmm. I had to leave the car overnight at his shop. He is not done as of yet. Do alarm installs normally take more then a day?

Depends on the features and if he wants the wiring to be correct and maybe found something he forgot. Sometimes it is better to wait a day and give out a good product than one not as good, lol. What did your research with other shops show? Similar price range?

Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

Is this a t tap install, a strip and wrap install, or a solder install? The way the installer does their wiring is something you defiantly want to look into b4 having an alarm done. T taps are a headache and cause a lot of problems later on down the road due to poor connections.

Basic alarm install including prep should take less than three hours. All the addons should may've be another three. Most of them are truly plug and play from what I remember and just take dialing in the sensitivity. the only thing I hate were the window modulea
