Thanks
for me i just want remote start and a little sensor. i dont' need anything else, specially another remote chained togther with the key. so the LMW was my only choice
if you get others like viper, you probably will pay about the same price too, and you get some more features like paging and stuff. but i didn't even consider it myself

Well the lexus one has the picture of the car and everything and i beleive the viper one has the same thing.
damn to many gadgets to get for the GS.
is the remote start really worth it?

I have the Viper 791 2 way pager and am very happy with it. The shock sensors give warnings unlike the luxury motorworks one which just honks. The luxury motorworks one is perfect for someone who has a newer lexus in which the alarm is incorporated in the existing key.
In my case, it was different. All my key had was the side button for the remote and that's it. I also did not have trunk release and the viper quickly filled that void.
With the viper remote, I am notified when someone activates the alarm or even when the warning sensors go on. The range is the best as I have been 200-250 yards away from my car and the remote can still start the car and unlike the doors.
The best thing I like about the remote start is when leaving work or school at night, I can start the car with the headlights turned on. Makes it seem like I have a personal valet. hehe

what does the remote start come with.? relays to install? if so how many and will it be a plug and play? or do i have to splice in to my factory system? and whats the range? because my factory system does work when i am not NEXT to the car. i still need my chin to help with the signal sometimes . how can i extend the range of my alarm?

dave, I have the audiovox, but you would know that if you ever brought ur lazy *** down here to check out the whip
it works fine for what I use it for, the two way paging works great (tells u when it's running and when someone breaks into it)
the viper is a lil better quality, but at a premium price tag.
If I was you, I'd have the dealer do it if it doesn't offset the payments that much or if you could have it tossed in for free...
so does that mean you got the silver 430 or what???

the dealer told me it should work a 1/4 mile away. im not sure if that is true or not.
how much did you guys pay for your remote starter and a passive alarm?
lexus told me they would do it for me for $890
