Now Ive worked along side a few guys that could, and did install the units at a rate of 2-3 to my 1, but the fun part was watching as their units came back for repairs, or re-programs because they forgot or skipped something. When a vehicle came back for return, and it was installer error, the employee had to drop a 10 in a jar, i cant tell you how many pizzas and cases of beer those guys bought, but i can say i pretty much ate for free during remote start season… Now i left that 5% window open because i have had issues with some parts, but ive got to tell you, DEI spends a ton of loot making parts, and doing R&D, Ive had fortin units malfunction too though, but then again thats where the warranty comes in. So if you think about it, there really is no 100% perfect product out there, whats more important than brand, price, etc. is service, installation, and experience. Do you really want some guy installing this into your $20,000 car in a parking lot at your work, or installing from a van, or even worse a high school student crawling around your car installing electronics that he has never seen before over at the box store, or do you want to go with the a place down the road that sells and installs these units every year, year after year, and has a vast knowledge of the systems how they operate, and a true interest in the work, rather than a minimum wage pay check to save up for prom. -Chaz btw: i know and understand that there are a select few employees of the box stores that are phenomenal installers, and probably know more than i do about ohms law, and such, but as I have stated before, they are few and far between, and usually the guys with the most experience and know how at those places, are the guys sitting at a desk crunching numbers, rather than stretching wire. -Chaz --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/remote-starters/200750)._
