In theory it all sounds nice but it doesn't work very well. January 4, 2010

I purchased a new car with a manual transmission a year ago. Having had a remote start in my previous vehicle, which was also a manual, I decided to get another. After searching I wanted something with an alarm and remote start. The bells and whistles were nice as well, including remote paging.
When I got the unit, I quickly set to work to install the system. What I do not like is that amazon sells units like this under the guise that DEI will NOT warranty or support anything that isn't sold/purchased/installed by one of their authorized dealers. After figuring that out in hindsight, I knew I was out of luck for support or help.
Once I had the unit installed, and the shutdown sequence for the manual transmission figured out, it worked alright. Then after two, to three days, the unit decided to start to act up.
The remote start sequence requires that the car be running, doors closed, in neutral, then depress the brake pedal, and then while holding down the brake pedal, engage the e-brake, then release the brake pedal, then press the remote start button on the remote. The lights will flash, the green light on the remote will light up, you can now take the key out of the car, get out, shut the door, and walk away. The car will still be running until, you press the lock button. That locks the doors and turns the motor off.
Well, I've had problems where the car won't shut off after the above sequence was performed. Where you have to press the remote start button again to get the car to turn off. This only makes the alarm go off full blast the next time you try to remote start the car. Then you have to go back outside and perform the sequence again. Sometimes it doesn't even take, and you have to repeat it again and again.
I'm finishing this review off by saying, I was successful in the sequence at work this morning, but when I got back, I noticed that the sequence was broken because the alarm went off again. When I asked around, nobody had gone near the car. This isn't the first time, as the alarm has gone off at random times as well in the day.
Overall quality of the unit, is nothing more than a circuit board inside a black box, and two remotes. One will allow two way communications, the other is a dummy remote that does one way communications. The buttons on the remote are cheap and flimsy and do not work very well.
Also, the manual for install and use, has several spelling mistakes, along with being written by someone who has not clearly installed the unit before. Some steps come before others in reverse order, it was very confusing, remember to test everything and solder all your connections.
In the end, I am very dissatisfied with this DEI product and will not be purchasing another unit from them again, or through Amazon.com for that matter.
