2 Way Remote Start

tragik wrote: I'd go with the autopage. the range is about 2000 ft, but the programming rocks. it can be programmed to ignore the domelight for 45 seconds after arming, and after the ignition turns on and off. it can beat the factory security by unlocking before start, and relocking after start, and then relocking after shut down to rearm. it has the driver paging that the compustar has, and it can monitor the temperature of the vehicle from the remote. the only thing I don't like about it is its inability to recieve a signal from the remote while it is sending a signal to the remote. that is to say, if the alarm goes off, it will do so for upto 10 seconds before you can shut it off. other than that, the unit is great.

Now that's what I what hear!  Pro's, Con's.  Keep them coming if anyone else has anything else to add...

If you have problems with your install we may be able to guide you through it but DON'T expect any help from tech support. Yup, I know, I have some bad experiences with installers so I have learned to do my own... I have installed a couple of DEI alarms and remote starts, but not on a car this complicated but I do know electrial and I know how to use a meter so it's a step in the right direction.  Forums such as this helps thru a lot of the road bumps...

I hate to beat a dead horse....but none of you youngsters have dealt with Astrostart......like DEI, only for auth. dealers BUT, you can leave a message and your phone will ring within 10 min. No wasted time waiting on hold for EVER......

Oh, and better product too, made in North America and tested in the most brutal conditions. Thats were Astros money goes R&D, not advertising, like DEI.

OK Im ready.....3 2 1 FIRE.

even tho i dont deal with astrostart anymore, ill agree with kartune, astro start makes a killer product and i wish i could still get my hands on them! phenomial range, and ive never had problems with them. the one in my old mans car is probably 6-7 yrs. old and it still works just the same as the first day it was installed.Mike Battaglia

KarTune is right. astro rocks. I've instaqlled thousands of them, and as an installer, they are my favorite. I just wish that they're programming was as flexible as an autopage. 4 multi-function programmables, and a programmable relay, and they still won't let you ignore the f*ing dome light. And yes, the autopage is much better than the Viper thing. I never have like DEI.Northstart.....or start it your damn self.

Thanks everyone I picked up the Autopage 855, it looks like it has most flexiablity....
