i'm pretty sure every place u go to will quote you different prices...just remember the least expensive isn't always the best. your best bet is to find a *reputable* shop that sells/installs/troubleshoots Clifford products.

damn bro, the AG4 is prolly gonna run you at least 3-4 bills for installation. Not sure how much fixing it would be. I wish I could have gotten the AG4 for my car, the best alarm out there IMO.

if the brain was just unplugged then u can do the install yourself
just find where it was mounted and plug in after it got fixed.
simple

if im not mistaking, it's just a couple harnesses(or one) that plugs into the brain so it should be a simple plug and play type deal. You shouldn't have to be wiring anything up, simply plugging it back in.

My alarm does that too, Clifford Concept 600, but I have been told it's because of my autolock and the metallic tint on my windows, apparently the proxy sensor doesn't like metal:dunno:

either splice that sensor back together, or fawk it, all you have to do is plug the harness(es) back in to the brain and ur set. Easy as shit and keeps alot of money in ur pocket. A shop will prolly try to rape you on it and charge ****ing $100 or so to do this, when you can do it for free, just spend a lil time, and send me $50 for giving you such good advice :thumbup:

and you mentioned that previously right? OK, now there we're done being a smartass, :wtf: are you asking us how much it's gonna cost for, pick up a phone, call a clifford dealer and ask them. Seems the most logical wouldn't ya say:thumbup:
