A:AnswerGerman car are usually different set up but it should be the same on US market. Bring it to Bestbuy and they should have information in computer toget it fit in the BMW. This unit should works on newer car, Bestbuy people should have all the require parts.
A:AnswerYou can depending on your aptitude for this kind of thing. I was going to install mine, but the temperature went down to single digits and there wasn’t any installation manual with it. I ended up having Bestbuy to it. They did it in a little over an hour and it was in the Price of the unit anyway.
A:AnswerSince the Viper remote start system is expandable into a full vehicle alarm system, the light is there as an indicator that the vehicle is equipped with a Viper system. It’s a deterrent against people trying to break into or steal your car.
A:AnswerYes you can lock unlock and start the vehicle with an iPhone. I think the Best Buy installer said this particular alarm had like 100 feet or so starting range with your iPhone. I haven’t tested the range yet though.
