I would like to hear from those with aftermarket remote starters in their vehicles....particularily the Viper system. I need slightly more range, about 100 feet, out of the factory starter in order to start it at work while on nights.

I would like to know how much of a pain were you told it was to install it into the Jeep? I know the harder it is, the more it costs. Also, did you loose any benefits like the option that the Jeep will kill the engine within 2 seconds if it does not detect a key....I'd rather keep this as an anit-theft option.

Grizz,

I just purchased the Viper 5901 but I got mine online for $219, Stereo shop who's installing mine wanted $769 but I told him I already had the alarm so he is charging me the below quoted price.

We charge $150 in instllation for the Jeep unit.
The Interface is $104.00.

But this remote start/alarm is nice with range.
