Viper remote start
Went to get a remote starter/ alarm installed today and the installer called me about 3 hours after I dropped off my car telling me that the new camaros cant have remote starters installed because of something in the computer that viper has to make a new flash program. I'm no techy but I think he is full of sh*t.... Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah sounds like he may not have the correct parts, or the ability to program it. They are definitely doable.

I installed a compustar alarm start on my 2010 2ss m6 and it went in great, I have been installing remote starters and alarms for over 12 years. From the sounds of it I would be happy that this guy couldn't do it I wouldn't want him working on my car.

Yeppers, mine works great. I have the 5901. And in fact even if you have a manual tranny you can use it. You just have to get the clutch bypass installed.
What your installer might be referring to, is there was a new ignition system in the 2011 since the 2010s. You installer needs to contact DEI or you can contact my installer his name is Jeff (308) 234-6425 Tell them you got the number from Nate Stephens, then he will be super cool to you. He can probably order the part for you or tell you the part number you need and you can give it to your installer. Hope this helps you out. |

Talked to my installer directed him to this site and he did some digging and found out his bypass kit wasnt the right one, He is ordering the right one now. Thanks for all the help..... Now hopefully it gets done right... haha.

If you are doing a viper tell the installer you need a DBALL module, I did it on my car, and it works flawlessly.
Also a cool thing is that you can control the viper alarm with the factory fob so if you didnt want to carry around another remote you dont have to. Last these are about the EASIEST alarms and remote starts that I have ever installed and I am been in car audio for 10 years |

Viper 5901 Car Alarm/Remote Start
This is the one I use works very well with the manual transmission, set up so that you haveto do a specific shutdown or it will not start remotely,
