kickass audio Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 Okay, so i have a 2004 GMC Envoy and i am on the market for a very good alarm system/remote start. I have absolutely no clue how to install one (nor do i want to take my chances of screwing up something to do it myself) so i will take it to a shop locally to get it installed. but i wanted to see what everybody on here has to say and suggest for me to buy. I would like to have a very good range for remote starting as well as paging my remote if the alarm is set-off, a window is broken, or anything like that. My neighbor has a omega alarm system and i had an omega remote start/keyless entry system and it worked pretty well but i only got about 250 feet which sucked. I would love to have about 500 feet, if not more for distance i can run my keyfob off of. I really want to have a keyfob where i can have a lcd screen (either a lcd with a color screen, or a generic black screen with a backlight) to show me the status of my vehicle, as well has have door lock/unlock and remote start buttons on it. My price range would ideally be around 300 to a max of 400, depending on its features and how much i hear people raving about it. But please get back to me with ANY and ALL systems that you may use, think are great to have, match what i am looking for, or anything in general and i will be more than grateful for it. As always, thanks in advance SMD members!!!

fr34kout Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 I have a 5901 on my 08 Envoy, had a problem with it for a few weeks and it ended up being a faulty antenna. Got it changed and it's been working 100% since then. Would definitely recommend it, I just wish I got the 5902 for the better remote.

fr34kout Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 Yea that also depends on the shop too, I paid 500 installed for mine. Still a little out of his price range but I think it would be worth saving up a little extra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fr34kout Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Too lazy to go look for the reciept, but I did get a really good deal since I know the guy that runs the shop. Was just pointing out it *can* be done for cheaper it depends on who you know and how good of a deal they're willing to give you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
