Deal with someone who has a good name, and who will be there for you
if something goes wrong.  There should be a warranty period on the unit.

Many people place an unjustified level of confidence in 'dealerships' - a
level which they do not always deserve.  And, the dealerships are often
not the most economical way to get something done.

You get what you pay for, usually.....

That said, our old tenant bought an expensive remote with alarm from a
so called 'high end' shop and the bozos that installed it could never
make it work right.  They even forgot to tighten down the battery
cables.  Not once mind you, but twice at the cost of a new alternator
and computer and ignition module each time....  The sucker would die in
intersections and refuse to start sometimes and have to be towed.  That
and just firing the alarm randomly drove him/us nuts.

Unfortunately he passed away before the lawsuit got settled.....

Some dealers have competent workers, lots don't.....  

I would want a mess of references for doing that type of work and have
even heard of dealers that point blank will refuse to put the remote
start in recently.

$i have a 2000 chevy venture and would like to get a remote car starter for
$it.

  Why?  To spend money on a device which, when used the way most people
use them, wastes gas and is unnecessarily hard on the engine?
