LOVE THIS!,
January 21, 2008
"Received this for Christmas, from Northern and i love it! I have an older car and was jealous of everyone who had the cars that come with the starter. I complained so much to my boy that he finally got it! I watched him install and he did it quickly and i am happy! No more cold mornings waiting the whole ride for the truck to get warm! Must have for everyone! Highly recommend."

This is no BullDog,
November 17, 2008
"This was my 5th remote starter from Northern. I was expecting the BullDog Security unit.
The Prestige unit that arrived was a dissapoinment. This unit requires several holes to be drilled into the vehicle. The instructions were sparce and seemed to be geared toward professional installers. I had to refer to the Bulldog website for wiring diagrams and bypass information. Please bring back BullDog Security remote starter kits. They are much more user friendly for DIY'fers."

Remote Start unit,
August 11, 2008
By twowheeler from Park Falls, Wisconsin
"To install this unit, requires a lot knowledge of your car and its wiring, by reading other posters, I thought it was a Bulldog security unit and went to their web site for help. They did help with some wiring guides and best of all a "T" harness that I purchased, but it helps to have your car wiring diagram. The supplied instructions were excellant and covered all the details, except the wiring choices (colors). To these old tired eyes the print was too small, so went to the Prestige (Audiovox) website and printed a larger version. All wiring was ample and plenty of it, did shorten some wires to avoid a birds nest under the dash. Installation took a couple of days, I'm detailed orientated. After programming the unit, I can start the car from the house, and it stays locked till I unlock it with the remote, a feature that was'nt addressed in the write-up. Overall a excellant unit, but does require something more than basic knowledge of your car and don't be in a hurry to install. Do it right the first time."

waste of money and time,
February 3, 2008
"I purchased this product because of the detailed instructions that were promised in the point of sale information. that could not be further from the facts. I recieved no dvd as promised there is only a small instruction manual, that would be great for a certified mechanic but for a diy install it was horrible. I have spent the better part of 2 days trying to install this system.Ihad to purchase a wiring schematic for my vehicle, misc wiring connecters and extra wire, still no functions with the remote start. needless to say
I would not suggest this system as a diy."

I knew it would work,
March 10, 2007
By DaveT from Jacksonville, Fl
"I gave this to My Wife as a gift and promised installation by Me. I had not done even a car radio install in 20 years or so but still knew the basics. I had to read the instructions more than once, but over 2 weekends, I got it in and it worked perfect. I think I use it more than She does. The install dvd told and showed Me what to look for but the included tester was the best tool for me. The clicker works from a long way too ...I park way out and when I come out and push it,I can see the lights flash but way to far to hear it crank...fun huh?"

Bulldog Remote Starter,
March 7, 2007
By Buick from Pennsylvania
"Easy Install. We installed one no problems on the second one we had no output on trunk latch circuit. Contacted tech department at factory. They said problem with control unit shipped back for repair took about a week to get back. Finished install works perfect. I agree with other installers range not as advertised. I would suggest if you cant see vehicle opt for the longer range model."

"Pretty easy to install. It is made easier if you get the wiring harness for your specific car. Works great!"

Installing on two cars!,

By chewbaccabear from STL, MO
"I thought the installation was simple. I bought the harness too and it cut down the time by 50%. All you need to do is go to bulldog security website and get your wiring diagram. I loved it so much I'm installing it on another vehicle!!!"
