Installing a viper 791vx in an 05 Denali, I bought a 457gw with the RS. Is this the best module to use for this application?

I thought the 791xv came with the remote start?

it does; the 457GW is the databus interface for doorlocks, and bypassing the passlock

Life moves pretty fast; if you don't stop and look around once in a while; you could miss it.

Okay... first of all, hi everybody!

I started using the 457gw last summer wid viper rs 160, 771 an 791, at least once a week. Never heard any complaints from customers... seemed everything works for them. Then I get an 03 tahoe and think "no problem" done a lot of em, right? WRONG!!!

first, the heated seat thing (read that-makes sense) but then, the perimeter lighting and the lock/unlock wouldn't work. Disarm would chirp but no unlock, arm would chirp but no lock. It seemed to stop messing up except for the perimeter lights, so i left it alone. Now, the locks only work with the factory remote and if u try to remote start it, the factory alarm goes off. WTF? Can anyone explain this? I've done the exact same install on 02-05 tahoe, 03 silverado ss, 03-04 escalades, and now it only messes up in my own friggin car?!

Diva I have not installed my RS yet, but I will keep you posted on my results. What about the heated seats?
