Title: Not too difficult to self-install.
Review: Viper prefers you use an authorised dealer for installation. I did not find installing the system too difficult...trick is to get a good wiring diagram for your vehicle. I used AllData, 1 month subscription. I bench tested mine to ensure all worked properly. Programming options are simple. Their are a few options that can only be programmed by a bit writer, but the majority of users wont need to change those options. So far, it has worked flawless and the range is good. No complaints!

Title: DO YOUR RESEARCH
Review: I AM AN ELECTRONIC TECH!This is not something the average joe can install. I would highly recommend going to a professional installer.I was unable to install this in my car without a bunch of other electrical components and a lot of research.I returned the item because it would have cost me more to install this myself than to pay someone.My car required many aftermarket components that are not included with the alarm.This "MAY" be a good fit for a DIY individual.Once agian.... "DO YOUR RESEARCH"

Title: Great buy!
Review: Great alarm! Works from a far distance and the 2 way remote is amazing great way to just check if u actually locked your car or forgot just look at the remote to make sure its locked...Very loud. And the remote goes off and showes you whats happening in case you are in the store and cant hear the car, you will hear your key going off.I would call around to different alram shops if you plan on installing to see if your car will be able to use the remote start or if any bypass modules are needed. Or (in my case) a sacrificial spare key is needed to be left in the ignition. I opted out of the spare key and the remote start and just hooked up the alarm by itself but left the remote start in just in case i decide to add it later on down the road.Overall 5 star great product for the price cant beat it. . .Tip: read your owners guide and figure out all the lil tricks. So you dont accidently set it to valet mode like i did lol.

Title: Excellent alarm, decent remote
Review: So, I've been installing security systems and car audio since the early 80's. I've owned a car audio shop for several years, and was an installer for many more before then. This alarm is not for the faint of heart if you want all the bells and whistles, but if you're above average with auto electrical systems, you shouldn't have too many problems installing this system.The biggest problem here is that it does NOT come with installation instructions, and you WILL need to use your google-fu to find a copy of it online! No, you cannot get it from Viper unless you are an authorized installer of DEI products, so don't even bother contacting them for it! Believe me, the instructions are online, but its not easy to find!On to the installation! Its pretty standard fare here, with all the normal connections you'll need to do for a reliable alarm. Want remote start? Why wouldn't you? Its available, so why not install it? Here's where your multimeter and test light will become your best friend!I did this install in one day, including removal of the stock Toyota alarm system in a '97 4Runner, and to be honest, that just made the install easier since most of the basic stuff was there for me to tap into. Door lock/unlock triggers, pin switches for doors and rear hatch, hell, even the wires were run for the piezo chirp under the hood, which made it nice and easy to run the new siren!Testing all of the starter wires weren't too hard and were all under the steering column where they should be, and the hardest part was tapping into several 10awg wires. No, I don't ever use T-taps, this install was purely cut/solder/heatshrink all connections and it took much longer than necessary to make sure it was all done correctly and without questionable connections! I have always said, this is what sets good installers apart from great installers!Programming wasn't difficult, even without a bitwriter, alhtough it would have been nice to really change all of the settings, rather than what DEI allows you to change by key and button programming.All the settings work quite well, range is phenomenal at easily a half mile when my son and I were screwing around with this alarm!The only drawback is that 2-way remote. Its finicky and sometimes just does a reset when you hit the start button or disarm button. No reason why, although I suspect a bad solder joint for the battery tabs. Some day I'll open it up and re-flow the solder over them to see if that fixes the issue, but for now, it only happens once in a while.Overall though, I'm happy with the alarm, and more importantly, my son loves having it in his 4Runner while at school. Nothing like knowing if someone's touching your vehicle from way deep inside a concrete building! Thankfully, he's not had to worry about that!

Title: Another great dei product
Review: Installed this over the weekend and it works great. My only Complaint is sometimes I have to hold the button a bit to get the truck to react. I have dei alarms in all of my other vehicles but this is my first one with this model. Not aDeal breaker just a little Different.

Title: Great after install, but died six months later.
Review: I have had one Clifford and one Viper alarm from DEI installed in prior vehicles with absolutely no issues. This one from Viper worked great after installed in May 2024. Problems started showing up in August with it being slow to arm and disarm. Once disarmed it would chirp four times indicating that it had been triggered, which it hadn't. This October, it quit entirely. It has all the correct inputs and outputs, the 'brain' of the system has already died. It's a very expensive kit to have such poor reliability. No warranty as I am an automobile technician with over 20 years experience, but not an 'authorized dealer'.
