dei

You state that there is nothing special with DEI products. True, they don't offer a one of the kind remote start or anything like that BUT they do offer a coast to coast warrenty at any DEI dealer. I belive thats why a lot of people like them. They have one of the best warrenty programs. But beacuse of that they are also kinda pricy, but if you want the best of the best -- your going have to pay.

Thats what I am saying: Clifford is the only DEI product that I would even consider, but it would only be if someone gave it to me.  And even then It is not for sure that I would want to install it. 

If the warranty is all it has going for it, then that sure doesnt say much.  Dont get me wrong, that is nice, but I guess I am looking for from the side of the installer.

I think if I had never heard someone say: "I will never install any other brand of alarm or starter"  I would probably not have even brought this up.  I guess I was just looking to see what people liked about them, or even what people liked about installing them.  Someone mentioned the bitwriter before, but that hardly seems like a good reason to exclusively install DEI products. 

I am also interested in hearing from people who dislike DEI.

this is my 1st time using Dei.  I only have it because it was a gift (rattler 300).  All my other alarms in the past were Alpine.  I can not say much about the dei product , but there warranty policies suck.  In Canada anyway( 800 # not acessable from my area).  So far the alarm is good I guess, considering the remote was defective and failed to work after 1 week (no warranty).  They say water damage, but were was the water.? This was the remote I did not use.  THe only reason I noticed it was defective was because the green light on the control was on all the time.  Anyway, other than that the only other problems were with the installers (Krazy Krazy).  They did not install the valet, that was included, never returned the parts that were not used, and put a scratch on my door above the handle.
