    Not thrilled at all! Purchase a different brand that best buy carries went to geek squad on installation day they persuaded me to buy cause they had all the hardware in stock. As well as upgrading the Purchase to 1 mile radius does not work as expected. NOT PLEASED AT ALL!

    I was very pleased with my purchase and installation. The autotech was very knowledgeable and took his time to make sure the installation was perfect the first time.

    Worst product ever. It had problems almost immediately after it was installed. Brought the vehicle back into Best Buy where it was installed. If the remote start was used the vehicle would not shut off no matter what we did. Techs were great. They redid the install and it worked for about a week. Now the remote start doesn’t work at all and is killing the battery.

    Bought for my daughter to help her deal with the Midwest winter. Not fancy with features, but allows her to come out to a warm car. Geek squad install was a snap.

    Since its over a month to get BBY installation, can't really rate it at this time. As far as I know, looks like a good deal for this system.

    Nice starter kit for the price but will most likely need to upgrade for longer distance and phone use instead of small fob .

    The range on the supplied remote couid be better. If you dokt have a dorect line of sight to yiur car (ie apartment) its worth the upgrade to the 2 way remote.

    The viper system was not compatible with the vehicle. Car doesn't warm up or defrost the windshield. And no one told me. Waste of money.
