Default Getting Clifford Alarm Installed

Hey NYC crew. I'me getting a Clifford Matrix Security system with the pager installed at Doren Sound and Security in Queens. The Shop is very professional, and they have computer schamatics of every vehicle. The place is clean, and they have professional installers that know there stuff. They also have the viper 791xv for 50 bucks less than the Clifford. They have the same features (same company), but I went with the Clifford because of the Carbon Fiber remote. Anyone interested in going, I can be your tour guide.

Drum rolls please..695 installed with the works. The viper is 50 bucks less. The unit itself costs 349, the viper unit is 299. Remember additional options require more relays. That's with any system you buy. This place is top notch with their work, and the work shop is clean and proffessional

* 5 channel remote start*/security/keyless entry system
* Confirms commands and system triggers on the transceiver LCD screen
* Clone-Safe® Code-Hopping®
* Parking Light Flash
* Failsafe® Starter Kill
* Anti-Grind
* Dual Zone Shock Sensor
* Six-Tone Siren
* Super Bright LED System Status Indicator
* Miniature XCRS (Extreme Capacity Relay Satellite)
* Defroster Output
* Built-in Turbo Timer
* 3 Auxiliary outputs
* Dome Light Supervision
* Includes One 2-way Responder Transceiver
I will also have the optinal dome light supervision, trunk release, and glass sensor.

The work on a 2nd GS is more intricate and more costly than say an IS, or SC in that wires will have to be run in each individual door for the relays. You will also need a spare key available to be installed in the brain of the alarm for remote start. Here are the options for the Viper.
Viper 791XV MSRP $599.99

2-Way Security and Remote Start System with Responder Technology.

* 5 channel remote start/security/keyless entry system*
* Confirms commands and system triggers on the transceiver LCD screen
* Clone-Safe® Code-Hopping®
* Parking Light Flash
* Failsafe® Starter Kill
* Anti-Grind
* Stinger® DoubleGuard® Shock Sensor
* Revenger® Six-Tone Siren
* Super Bright Blue Status LED
* Miniature XCRS (Extreme Capacity Relay Satellite)
* Defroster Output
* Built-in Turbo Timer
* 3 Auxiliary outputs for additional remote control functions*
* Dome Light Supervision*
* Includes One 2-way Responder Transceiver

Sure there are places you can buy it online for cheap, heck I saw this very same viper system for $179.00. Mind you if you know about auto security, relays are needed for a variety of options, as ell as some serious wiring. How much would installers charge to install it? A lot of them will be reluctant to do it because you didn't buy it from them. If there is a problem with the unit you brought in, they will not be responsible. If some one can come up with an Authorized Installer willing to install it for less, then let us know. 8 hours labor to install fellas. For you VIPER guys, its $649 installed, lifetime warranty, and it will include trunk release.

Check out this post about an o6 GS430 owned by a fellow member that was broken into. That is why I am going aftermarket no matter what. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...01#post1685301
