    Works well, I had factory remote start which I preferred better. Overall does the job, just a little slower starting up.

    Beware Additional Items Must Be Purchased

    I purchased the Viper Remote Start with Installation Package under the assumption that I was receiving everything needed to install the system right away. Lo and behold, once contacting Geek Squad for install appointment, I'm told I have to drive over an hour away to purchase the T harness for my vehicle for $110 and oh btw, installation will be an additional $70. Just be forewarned that additional costs and effort will be involved. Why they couldn't ship the T harness to me, I don't know? Are they in trouble of being buried by Amazon, me thinks for sure!

    I've had it installed for a week now and I enjoy using it. I don't like the heat so it is perfect for me in summer. The installation service from Best Buy was very good.

    It works perfectly! You have to buy the extended range remote in order for it to work at further distances.

    So far so good! Using the phone does not work good, unless you are 10-15 feet of the car. This has to improve.

    This let's me pre-set the air conditioning and cool down my truck before I get in it. On 100-degree summer days, this is a REALLY nice luxury to add to my 1997 F250
