Got My Remote Start Today! :)

todoubled05 · February 5, 2008

Called up a local Preformance car shop today and asked them about the remote starters they have. they told me about the astro and viper starts, and that they were decent but the viper out sold the astro. After explaing how it works and it features he told me the range was a 1/4 mile.. that not that bad (better than factory). Then i brought up the "viper 5900" that I heard so much about. the closest they could come to the viper was the Clifford 50.5X system.

The Clifford 50.5x came equipped with,

1. Mile keyfob range.

2. black carbon fiber type keyfob with LCD and a red backlight.

3. Dual zone shock sensor, mounted in the vehicle to pick up impacts to glass and vehicle.

4. audio sensor, detects the acoustics of metal on glass, glass cracking and breaking glass.

and another thing that is great about this system is, If your alarm was to go off, the keyfob will vibrate and chirp. this is great if you were to far to hear your alarm.

iv had it for about 4 hours now and love it haha.

total install cost was 400$ system and modual.

questions or comments?

Sounds like a pretty nice unit for 400 bucks. Congrats.

I agree, $400 is a good price! Mine is factory and I think I used it maybe twice.

Yea the mile range is the best part. its going to be nice when im at work, when im in the changing room i can hit the starter and by the time i change and get outside the truck will be warmed/cooled up and ready to go.
