No, at least not the way you'd want it to. The Matrix 12 is a 1-way alarm system. The LCD transmitter is for a 2-way.

You may be able to upgrade by swapping out the antenna for a 2way system. In some other cases a new antenna and brain are needed. talk to your local dealer

cartoys is a joke up here, they carry more cell phone then car audio ... best bet is call d.e.i yourself... and yes i did hear something the dei rep told me that if you swap out your antenna to a 2 way some units work...

Hmm...I'd never heard that before. Could work though.

Lol new brain + new antenna + new remote = pretty much a new alarm.

If you have the box for the alarm it will say on the side of it. Even the Viper 350 can do it.
