Hi all
I am looking into fitting an alarm with remote start and I need some advice on what bypass module to purchase. My car details are.
BMW E36 320i August build 1995. It has a factory fitted immobiliser but no alarm fitted.
What module will work 100% with my car for remote start and will it work with any alarm that has the remote start option?
Thanks

The car alarm I want to fit is a Sniper X2RS 2-Way Pager Car Alarm System with Remote Starter.
Are they any good?

Throw away that piece of rubbish, buy a clifford 650 Mk ll with I/start and I'll tell you everything you need to know. Mid 90s 3 series, do all your locks and windows still work properly?

Yep 100%. All door locks, petrol lock, boot lock and front electric windows. Manual windows in the back.

The Clifford 650 is over £250 to buy and my car is only worth £500.
I'm just after a cheap and cheerful alarm the works with all the benefits of the expensive alarms. That is fairly reliable and is a deterrent.
That is why I chose the Sniper X2RS 2-Way Pager Car Alarm.
If anyone can recommend another cheep alarm that is better than the Falcon Sniper alarm can you please let me know?
What bypass module will work a 100% with my car. The DEI 555B or the DEI 556U?
Thanks

Which of the two bypass modules will work a 100% with my car. The DEI 555B or the DEI 556U?

Cheap alarms are rubbish, I did some contract work for Falcon a couple of years ago and every single unit was faulty in one way or another, the best one was where the remote! failed after 2 weeks. To get the job done you have to pay the price, there is NO CHEAP decent unit. By the way,  add £100 to the Concept 650 for the Intellistart which incidentally is the only system which works legally with a manual transmission. You will also need a 556U for the by-pass.  I charge about £530 installed for that combination, shops will quote up to £800. The difference is when I install it, it works.

You know your stuff. What is your opinion on the Hornet 745T alarm system by Clifford?
No remote start, but I can live with that.
