97 Prelude remote start

Hey all,

I was wondering if you guys can give me some insights on wether to buy the 555u or 555d for the remote start. I only 1 key, and don't want to waste money duplicating more keys just for the 555u. Is the 555D complicated to hook up and does it work at all with the prelude? I plan to be using the DEI unit with the Audiovox remote start alarm.

Thanks

ttt just bumping this up, sorry if its not allow. Can anyone confirm if 555d works with the prelude?

The 555D is specifically desinged to bypass the 97-02 Prelude vehicles.

Hey all. I was told to buy the 555D for the Prelude 97 to bypass the alarm. I am installing it right now but sort of confused. I installed exactly like the 555D diagram says to do ( cut the ignition, data (PIX) ). So now, I have the Audiovox 785 alarm w/ remote start to install next. Everything is all set except the remote start wire components from the alarm, such as ignition 1 , starter, AC etc. The alarm unit asks to cut the starter, ignition wires in half and connect it with the alarm's wires. So that's where I'm stuck. The 555D already cut these wires and stuff, so how should I tap the wires from audiovox alarm into these wires?  I'm ok with installing alarms, but never done one with immobilizer. Help this novice plssss.

ttt...Any1....help plz. Jeff said the ignition starter wires that the 555D cut off is the same as the ignition wires from the alarm unit....???? Confused lol I think they would the same ? Help plz.

U need to INSTALL Remote Start 1st........as the 555D Manual reads.

Hey legenux, this is what I said in my last reponse to you ( I think you misunderstood my PM ):

The ignition & starter wire that the Audiovox system asks you to cut is not the same wires as the Immobilizer. You have to cut the ignition harness wires for the Auiovox system

So what you have to do is wire in the Immobilizer system first and then take the main ignition wires off the Audiovox system and find the proper wires at the ignition switch. The only wires you should have in common with the 555D and the Audiovox unit is the ground, 12 volt power & the starter wire. The wires that you have to cut for the ignition are in a BLACK loom running under the steering column and into the driver's side dash.
