I am looking into swapping to a new Viper 5902 from the current Compustar 2W8000FM-R that I have now (with problems).

I LOVE the range of the Compustar and would really love to have the same in the Viper. Been looking at that viper model and WOW! the features look incredible!

I would GREATLY APPRECIATE any and all feedback on this Viper 5902 alarm.

From those who sells it, know about it, or better yet can provide personal experience with it.

PRO's/CON's.. How was the distance on it?

Thank you very much!

I have a 1992 Camaro Z28 automatic but don't know if that really matters in this case :-)

Do some research on here before you go changing anything. I used to sell DEI systems and have since switched over to Compustar because of numerous quality issues with the DEI units. I can't say that its common with all of them, but I know there have been quite a few issues on here as well. What features were you looking at on the Viper that you don't have on the Compustar?
