Any incompatibility issues with the 2005 Pilot EX and the Viper 350HV or Clifford Arrow 5?  Here's what I was told from a guy at Best Buy:  The 2005 Pilot's key has the keyless entry buttons built in right onto the key itself.  Also because there is a security code imbedded into the key to start the ignition, the car will not start with an improper key and the passive alarm will go off. 

However, I would like to consider an active alarm where if someone breaks a window, the alarm will go off.  I was told in addition to buying the alarm, I would need to buy a "bypass module" for about $50 and another $50 for installation.  They said this module is required and is used to bypass the built-in Honda alarm that came with the car so that I can still use my key to start the car.  Is this correct?  Will putting in an after market alarm cause problems to my car?  Thanks in advance!

Only if the installation and execution of the install is below industry standards.

Otherwise, there will be no problems with respect to the RS / Alarm, interfacing with your vehicle.

$50 for the bypass and $50 for the install? My shop charges $50 for the bypass installed, and we don't make you give up a key. Are those prices you listed for a universal bypass module that requires you to give up your valet key?

If you plan on installing one of these two listed alarms, you don't need the bypass module. The module is only used for bypassing the factory immoblizer system when REMOTE STARTING your vehicle. The alarms you list don't have remote start capability built in. If you intend to add remote start to one of these alarms, only then will you need the bypass module.

I don't know??  Can you explain a little further what that would mean?  My valet key would not work?

kevindanielk:

Yes, the alarms I listed don't have remote start and I don't plan on getting it.  What I need is just a standard alarm system.  With that being said, I would like to ask again, I do not need the bypass module, correct?

Another question, let's say I have one of the alarms installed.  The alarm would come with a remote transmitter, right?  Then will the remote that's built into my key still work?  Probably not huh?

Another question, do I even need an active alarm if the 2005 Pilot already comes with a passive alarm?  I mean noone would be able to start my car anyways because of the engine immobilizer, right?  or is the built in Honda immobilizer some cheap stuff that can be easily broken into?

Thanks again for your post(s)!  Greatly appreciate it!

You definitely don't need the bypass module if you don't plan on getting a remote start.

The new alarm would come with new keychain transmitters. If the alarm is properly installed to also operate your factory oem alarm, you will not need to use the factory alarm transmitter buttons any longer. However, the immobolizer built into your key will still be active.

The immobolizer is not some cheap stuff. It is very effective in stopping your car from being started without the key. The key actually sends out a coded signal to your ignition cylinder when you turn the key on. If the right code is received by the immobolizer controller, the car starts. If not, then the starter and ignition circuits are disabled for a period of time. Most newer cars come with this type of system because it has proven to be the most effective against theft.

kevindanielk:

Since the pilot already has the factory immobilizer, do I still need the starter kill that's on the after market alarms?  Can I tell the installer to leave out the starter kill portion of the install?

Lastly, if the aftermarket alarm is properly installed, then with the push of a button on the aftermarket alarm transmitter, the alarm should arm and lock the doors.  Another push of the button will disarm and unlock the doors, right?  What will happen if I accidently push the factory alarm buttons (will it cause electronic problems in my car)?

Thanks again!

You could do without the starter kill portion of your aftermarket alarm. The immobilizer will handle the starter cut-off portion.

If you accidentally push the factory alarm buttons, there will be no adverse effects on your electronic systems, but the aftermarket alarm, if armed at the time, will most likely will see this as an intrusion and trigger full siren.
