dont cry lol!

i highly reccomend clifford....

like i said dont be cheap........

i got a hookup and got it for 360 installed, while they go for around 500 installed...

i was gonna pick it up from ebay, but thought its gonna be a bitch to install and etc etc.

plus if you get it from ebay, bring it into a audio store, installation from them will cost around 150 or so.......

hmm i think i need larger pictures of the remote to make my decision.... ....i work at best buy and that clifford shown is really nice the 2 way feature is the best option for protecting your "money pit" oh yeah best buy is basically 600 installed depending on the car but it could be much less depends on parts

i have a friend at best buy who is going to buy and install my alarm for me! retail price for the matrix 3.5 is like $400 something! matrix 2.5 is like $330! I will get it and installed for like $150!! hahah, nice deal huh? yah, i know! anyway, what's the difference between the two, is it just that the 3.5 has a remote start? i have a manual, so i was thinking about getting the 2.5 since no one will install a remote start on a manual, and then it'll save me money too i guess. oh, and i'm getting a proximity sensor for punks that wanna peep through my windows (which will be tinted soon)

hmm, seems over priced, i check out my local good guys, they have it for 500 installed..... so im sure you can get a cheaper price. or you can ask your buddy to hook it up

this is actually my brothers remote.....

the remote actually gives you alot of information... it notifies you if someone opens your door, breaks your glass, pops your trunk, pops your hood, etc. etc.....

one more pic coming

Good thinking invest 100 on a shitty alarm then get your 4000 engine swap, and hope for the best.
