I've got the Python version of the Viper 2-way pager unit (same company, same parts, just a different sticker) the only "problem" that I have had was due to operator error...I closed me rear hatch on the key fob one day and cracked the LCD screen. As far as product though...can't really complain. I have one of the units that boast a "up to 1 mile range" and it works great as long as I'm not inside any concrete buildings.

i have the whole package. windows trunk and remote start and love it. you WILL need to get the trunk release to use the remote to open your trunk. as far as the 2 way pager goes. its nice b/c if your alarm goes off it does the same alarm on the remote

it will also let you know what buttons you have pressed. my only dislike about it is that if you press a button accidentally out of range it starts to scream at you and everyone looks like wtf is that.

I spent 400 bucks on a viper alarm. Only to have it removed a couple months later. The thing was cheesy. They guys never did get it wired to open my hatch an remote start. The whole thing was a waste for me

^ Most alarm shops frown on puttin remote start on manual transmission cars...that could've been why they didn't hook it up for you. The hatch pop though...tsk tsk on them.
