I would put it top of the line, or right along with the intellguard 750 paired with the intell start module. "picture looks like a cheap 5 button remote" If you consider it has one of the longest ranges on the market, is water restiant, and you can even program the sencitivity of the alarm from your house with it, then you are right. J/K, actually it is a very well made remote. If your looking for a 2 way look into the clifford responder. It is probably more along the lines of what you are looking for. www.clifford.com/matrix/responder/default.asp |

Can I buy a matrix responder and use it on my avant guard 5? The AG5 seems like a great system and I found it for $280 on Sonic Electronix. I just want a fancy remote to spark up my keychain, if you know what I mean. If I can use the matrix responder, then that would be great. Any info would be great. Thanks |

Its a better overall system, and comes whti every bell and whistle you could want, including auto start as you asked in your other post. 280 is good price too, but be cautious buying at places like that. First off I am guessing that is without install, and finding a place to install it could be a probelm. Some places try to stay away from installing alarms that were not purchased from them. Especially considering cliffords life time warranty. If you plan on installing it yourself, be forwarned you have about a 1 in 1000 chance of finding or getting the installer manual for it. Those are very well guarded by clifford for security reasons, so you will be in the dark on what wire is what. |
