RS 1100 Remote Starter
Once installation was complete, the unit worked perfectly. However, the installation was more difficult than it needed to be.
First, the installation instruction referred to a WHITE wire that was to be connected to a bypass module. This part of the instruction was vague in a couple of ways. 1) It did not specify what WHITE wire it was referring to while other areas of the instruction were quite specific (i.e. - BLACK wire with the Blue stripe on the 16-pin harness). 2) It said that th...

Works fairly well except for a few minor problems
I spent much time asking tech support questions prior to the install since it is my first attempt doing something like this. The VCR tape is worth the time to watch, and I watched it several times before and during the install. It went fairly well, except for needing some resistors (not included) and having a remote with sticky buttons, which they have agreed to replace. The actual install took about 5-6 hours on a system with no factory alarm. Overall I am very satisfied with the remote starter...

Works as advertised. Harder than advertised to install.
I received this unit for Christmas, and installed it in my Ford Explorer. The instructions are not as direct as they could be, but the video helps organize things. I needed to call tech support for a question/clarification and after a fairly long wait on hold (two days after Christmas so I expected that) I got the info I needed by a cheerful tech. The biggest problems with any of these self-installed units (this brand or others) are (1) people who don't have any electrical experience or tools, a...

Worked as what I want, but not so easy to set it up
Got two of them 2 month ago and set it up through a whole day. It really took me some time to figure out the right wire, because the diagram on their website is not so accurate for one of my car.(for 1996 avalon, the color of the wire for the door is not right). But once I set it up, it worked perfectly. I can control it at about 100 feet away from it. although it's not 400 feet, it is good enough. I gave it 4 stars only because it is not as easy as what I thought to set it up, but maybe it is d...

Works well, a little difficult to install
Bought this for my son's 05 Corolla. Buying the wiring harness easily cut the install time in half. Make sure to check Bulldog's web site to see if they have vehicle specific instructions for your car. Even with pictures from the web site, took longer than anticipated to install.
Got the damn thing working, only to quit. Began re-checking all the wiring. Put a paperclip to bypass the fuse and everything worked. Blew two of the supplied fuses.
Once installed, we're pleased ...

Great Product Not so Great Support
I have had this remote installed and partially working for about 1 month now. If you are planning on buying this item, I highly recommend checking out the wiring diagrams on the bulldog website before purchasing. This may show you how hard your install will be or how many more items you need to purchase to make it work. This is located under "Vehicle Wiring Diagrams" at http://bulldogsecurity.com
If you find your car on their and the diagrams don't have special notes or alternate ...

good buy
technical support from jbs for this bulldog remote start is excellant. the product meets all of my expectations and is very resonably priced. if you are looking to install a remote starter yourself, then this is the one to buy.

Install not bad, poor xmit range
I'm an electrician so installation was pretty easy - about 2 hours (no T harness). Once you have your vehicles wiring diagram, just match up colors and away you go. Works fine but the transmitting range is no where near 400', more like 60' from inside a house with car in garage.
One other note: I got this for xmas 2008 and wanted to use a "T" harness for my 2003 GM minivan. The model # is GM1-T harness. Absolutley NO one has this particular harness in stock and some companies say it'...

This is a must to have in the winter time
Good product, the instruction doesn't included trouble shooting. I have to go online and look for Q&A.
But overall, good to have in the winter time. The signal range is kind of short not as description (400 feet).
I am happy to have it.
