I have a 97 grand am se and im putting in a viper 791xv remote start/alarm. Im curious if i will be able to use a stater kill relay to make sure the car doesnt get stolen .. Is this possible or a shot in the dark?

Thanks a bunch..

The starter kill relay will NOT keep the car from being stolen. But that IS the idea!

Yes, you can install one. You just need to hook the starter output of the remote start unit to the "output" side of the starter kill relay. Starter kill relays will only slow a thief down, if they want to hot wire your car it won't stop them.

If memory serves me right...i believe that model has the starter kill buit in. It'll be the green and purple wires coming off the XCRS relay pack from your remote start. Your starter wire should be yellow(test to be sure)....cut it, then hook the green wire to key side and purple to starter side. If the unit is armed the starter kill should prevent the vehicle from cranking; once disarmed, it should crank of course.

...half of the truth can be worse than a lie. <----Roger Russell said that..
