Newbie here looking for some information on installing a car starter in a 1999 Eddie Expdition with a factory alarm system and a chipped key...Is there any tricks or trouble I’m going to run into before I rip my truck apart? I have a feeling there is going to be a issue with alarm..and the by-pass. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!!
Heres some info for the 99 explorer

You will need to use an immobilizer ignition module to pass the factory security, this is a part which tells the ignition that the factory key is in the ignition, this is a box that is mounted under dash and will have to contain a key you must purchase from the dealership or use a spare key for the vehicle. This module is DEI part number 555U but a number of companies make it. Just ask an install bay and they can definately get it for you. Good Luck and have fun.
