Viper Security System
 
Actually a security system. I was thinking of a Viper 5000 2 way Car Alarm System $399.95 (http://www.drdetailshop.com/viper.htm) or Viper 791 XV 2 way Car Alarm/Remote Start System $159.00 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002U3QZE/ref=pd_rhf_p_1/002-9682605-2063222?n=3004521&no=%2A&s=electronics&v=glance) with all the specs here (http://www.drdetailshop.com/V791XV.htm).
SORRY for all the links. Like I said, I am looking into getting a security system. I know they are kind of expensive but I'm not about to go cheap on my car, especially if I just invested $4k. Let me know what you guys think. If anyone can break some of this info down for me, I will appreciate it. I don't know much about security systems.
Does anyone know how they are different? Which one is better? Or what some of the features mean?

I have a 791xv and have NO complaints. Who's going to be installing it?

I was going to take it to a dealer (sort of doubt it) but mainly someone who is certified and knows completely what they are doing when they are installing the system. By the way, do you find the price kind of low for the one on amazon. Like it's almost so low that it is too good to be true. Can someone let me know what they think. At least compared to the other link, the prices go from $500.00 to like $150.00. That is a HUGE difference.

Would you or anyone buy it? I don't want to be ripped off or mislead.

It's because at a retailer, the majority of the price is installation. Those things are no walk in the park. I wouldn't take it to a dealer to have it installed, Best Buy will do it for $200 and we're certified and qualified. Plus, %99.99 of the time we've done your car before and know exactly how to do it. Especially since you have a civic, everyone out there has done a civic.

I'll take it to best buy then. I still need to know if anyone knows of any reliable places either online or not, to buy the Viper 791XV system. Is amazon good?
