My all time favorite is prob envoy, trailblazer & rainier, cause i do get paid on labour. Easiest to do 88-94 cavaliers, all the wires in the column, already a hole for the hood pin, did one in 35 min once.

Don't get paid on labour, eh? That sucks...sounds like a new topic to post for discussion. Do you think i can get away with it in the security catagory?

My favorite is any GM car or truck. I know the wiring off my head, they almost all use the same color wires. Also, I prefer using a PLDATA over a 555L, Its much easier, takes less than 2 minutes. I did a viper 791 on a 2000 Tahoe the other day and start to finish was maybe an hour and a half tops. I hate doing remote starts on Malibus and Intrigues, getting to the wires is a PITA. And I hate just about any car with a transponder key. My new NON-favorite is Jaguar. The wiring is hell! Negative ignition wires, a "bulb failure module" on each tail and parking light, plus you cant do trunk pop. The damn trunk is like a 5th door, it has a handle to open it and it locks and unlocks like a door.

Yeah, I did consider that. But Another thing I noticed was that the trunk lid doesn't pop up at all when released. You actually have to pull up on it when you use the handle to open it. Maybe I can use some spring loaded door poppers as well???? Installers, whats your fav vehicle? - Page 4 - Last Post -- posted image.

Honda/Acura cake job, easiest ever is Suzuki Grand Vitara..comes pre wired from factory for keyless/factory alarm tons of room to work under the dash.  And the Pontiac Aztec, almost all the wires can be accessed in a knock out panel in the center console.

HATE: Anything GERMAN BAHHH!, Concord/Intrepids....old Eclpise 5 speeds, have fun getting wires out under the hood.
