my dad's 2001 ford windstar have a rattler 300 or DEI 431R installed professionally. the problem is i want to install a bulldog deluxe 500 remote starter... i just don't know how to wire them properly. i mean i can wire the starter, crank, constant 12v the thing is i don't want to remove the rattler. i still want the alarm to operates. and it is possible to use the bulldog remote as a main control? like armed and disarmed the rattler. thanks for the help guys!

Theres no way to combine the 2 units, your best bet is to take out the rattler piece and find a quality security system that incorporates a remote starter.  this is by far the best method with little to no headaches.

Absolutely, why combine 2 terds? you just get one big pile with a bad smell and a big headache. Spend your money on a decent combined unit that will function properly from day 1. Trying to interface 2 different mfgs just doesnt always work right. I didn't look at you links but Im sure the bulldog wont do it. [theyr going under anyway why put one of their units in???] , off the rattler [aux out put ch 3] to activate the rs unit, but a bullpuppie wont activate that way , and Im pretty sure a rattler wont have a wire to pulse to disarm it.. SOL. If ya get a DEI unit and you HAVE an aux output third channel, then you could activate a stand alone remote start the is designed to be added on to an alarm. Like stated, a headach!
