I also agree with the above people that said to remove the VIP unit and install a unit that does both.
DEI makes very reliable units if you get one of the 1-way systems. Their older 2-way system remotes can be a little fragile. Their SST systems just came out so we can't really evaluate their long term durabilty.
Compustar also makes very good units. Their 2-way remotes are a lot more durable than DEI's.
Lots of companies make good units. I have installed a lot of different brands over the years, and the above are the best of what I have used.

Well, I guess I will contribute my experience and opinion to this one too. My opinion would be the 5204 Two-Way Alarm/Starter Combo or the 4204 Two-Way Starter from AstroStart. Great range, reliability, and again, like every installer knows, the quality of the install is what matters most. Been installing now for 8 years and have dealt with most of the DEI brands, and they each have their own pros and cons, aswell with Astro. Astro is now a DEI brand, I think somebody mentioned that earlier, but Astro still manufactures them, DEI just markets thems. I like Astro because of the reliability, range, durability, user friendly, and TONS of options.

I bought an Omega RS-4LX Remote Start.  Their Tech Support is non-existent.  It ties into the factory keyless remote and uses the keyless remote fob.  It's signal wire (pink) is supposed to go to the keyless remote control module's auxiliary output.  Does anyone know which wire that is and where it's located?  Also, I will likey need to hook up the Omega unit's Yellow wire, which is 12V + output whenever the Ignition switch is ON but the Omega unit is not energizing the ignition circuit.  This has to do with being able to operate the door locks while the remote start is running.  It says to connect it to the host unit's (keyless control module) ignition input wire.  Any idea what wire that is and where it's located?  I'm not a dummy; I'm a CMTT but the instructions with this Omega unit are kind of sketchy.  Thanx.
