Remote Truck starters?

QuickOne · 03-10-2005, 06:39 PM

Hey,
I finally took delivery of my new Titan...So far, so good!!! I want to put a remote starter in and I've seen a few of you already have.
Can you provide some insight on what are the good ones and what should I look for in a remote starter?
Thanks
Quick One

Thanks Bayou,
I was looking for some more in depth opinions on different starters...not on how to install them. I usually do a search first, but since I was looking for different info and the post was 4 months old, I figured I would start a new one.

I have a Viper 160XV and it works great. Here's a link...

Same here. I LOVE the range on the remotes. I can hit it from my desk all way out in the back row of the parking lot from here at work. (My office has over 7000 employees at work everyday...)

I have a viper 791 and I am real happy with it. Astro start also makes a good brand.

Why is your desk in the back row of the parking lot?

I'd just fold down the passenger seat and use it as a desk and not get out of the Titan,

I installed the Crimestopper unit that 1Badtitan had talk about awhile back. While it doesn't have the range that the others do I am still very please with MY work. When I researched pricing and features that I would really use it seemed this was the best option for me. I installed the 901 Crimestopper unit for $75 TOTAL. Everything else was $350 to $800. Hope that helps.

The range is great on these. Thry to relocat the antenna. Did you hook up the external antenna? Where did you put it.
