Default alarm installation?

Hey, does anyone know how to wire an alarm system w/ remote start? or know a place that can do it for a good price? I'm getting the viper 791VX in a week or so and need to find a place to install it. worst comes to worst i will be going to bestbuy and have them install it.

Ask for my buddy Brian Albano at the Dublin Circuit City. He has been in the roadshop there for longer than the Dublin Best Buy has existed(Over 5 years).

Good thing about CC is they'll be around to fix any problems down the line. Same goes for BB but, they don't have Brian there!

I don't know how much they charge. I'm guessing somewhere around $150. And he's had remote start on his Manual Lude for like 5 years now.

It might work better if you buy the alarm at CC too if you get it installed there. That way you know everything will have a lifetime warranty. They have alarms by the same company, DEI, but it is now a different line than Viper(Don't remember which).
