I am considering purchasing an OEM remote starter from HandAaccessories.com. But before I buy I wanted some input from others who have the system.

I know that I can get an aftermarket one that might be "better" but the car is currently leased so I would rather stick with the OEM version, plus I think the engine on/off to unlock/drive the car isn't really annoying. The 2-way system is nice, too.

Anyway - to those who have the system, how much did you pay for the install? And could you upload some pictures of the remote and it's size and also the antenna they put in the car during the install.

Also, have you had any problems with it or the 2-way system?

This seems like a good question. Nobody?

hope you realize that OEM alarms do not have a shock sensor built in. so someone can break your windows and reach in grab whatever...the horn will not go off unless someone opens the trunk or a door. be better off getting an alarm made by DEI w/ remote start built in
