$750+ Car Alarm in dorchester. The owner will make up some bull**** to milk more money out of you but its a simple method they use. At first they did not know how to install remote starter and alarm on a push start system. But they sure do know how to do it without any spare keys.

huh that sounds enticing, but I agree with you...$750 is quite steep. How flexible were they with the pricing?

well ive known them for yrs, for my Honda Si they usually charge others 600-650. but he gave me 550. The most he would do for other's is like 50.00 off. I was actually suprised that they actually learned how to install for Push start cars. As for BestBuy i can get it for 250 installed but they usually dont do a good job.

Amazing that they still don't have it...
My last three ford TRUCKS came equipped with remote start from the factory (and cooled seats too )!

but loving the mention of idling is bad for the environment !!!

HELLO ! CARS ARE BAD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT !!!

but I worry more about how I leave the world for my grandkids, than I do about the endangered frogs !!!
