Hi guys. I have finished installing a dvd system (stereo/speakers/monitors), neons, and a couple of amps & subs in my 2001 kia sportage. Would anyone be able to assist me with installing a remote start/alarm system?

I currently have a factory installed alarm system which I wish to replace with an aftermarket alarm/remote start 2 way. I would like to know which alarm is best recommended, along with the wiring diagram for my car.

I could not find my car's diagram on this site, and would appreciate any/all help available!

I would not have been able to do any of the installs I have completed without the great advise and assitance offered through this site.
