Remote Confirmation (?)2-Way remotes let you stay in touch with your vehicle, confirming your commands (such as remote start, or arming your security system) either with an LCD screen on the remote, or using LED lights. Some 2-Way remotes also act as a security pager, letting you know your siren has been triggered, even if you are too far away to hear it.
Remotes (?)The number and type of remotes that come with the system.
Range (?)VIPER systems use Radio Frequency (RF) technologies to communicate with your vehicle, and these technologies each have a typical operating range. Range varies by the technology used, but also because of environmental factors such as interference from other RF sources. Currently VIPER systems with the longest range use Spread Spectrum Technology (SST) with range up to 1 mile.
Security (?)Approximately 1.2 million vehicles are stolen in the U.S. every year and $1 billion worth of contents are stolen out of vehicles - so millions of vehicle owners have reached out to VIPER security systems as a powerful deterrent against thieves and vandals.
Remote Start (?)Remote Start allows you to start your engine by remote control, allowing your vehicle's climate control system to warm up or cool down the cabin before you get in. Range is important with remote start (your vehicle might be parked down the street, or at the far end of a parking lot) and 2-Way remote start systems are preferred (because they confirm that your vehicle has started.)
Keyless Entry (?)Unlock your vehicle's doors with the push of a button on your keychain remote.
Trunk Pop (?)VIPER systems with Trunk Pop can open your power trunk with the push of a button.
SMARTSTART Compatible (?)A VIPER SMARTSTART module can be added to this system to make your vehicle SMARTSTART ready.
Encryption (?)Clone-safe, anti-Code Grabbing technology comes standard on every VIPER system.
Domelight Supervision (?)A great safety feature: illuminates your vehicle's dome light for 30 seconds when you disarm your security system or unlock the doors of your remote start system.
Stinger DoubleGuard Shock Sensor (?)Each VIPER security system comes standard with the dual stage Stinger DoubleGuard shock sensor, which detects blows or impacts to the vehicle and can discriminate light impacts from heavy ones.
Neo Revenger 6-Tone Siren (?)Light impacts result in WarnAway chirps from the Neo Revenger Siren, while heavier blows result in the full 120 dB 6-Tone sequence, designed to frighten away the would-be thief and call attention to the intrusion attempt.
Failsafe Starter Kill (?)Keep your car where you parked it with the Failsafe Starter Kill, an immobilizer designed to prevent hot-wiring.
Anti-Carjacking (VRS) (?)VRS is a user-operated anti-carjacking system. Once activated, if your vehicle is carjacked, 30 seconds later the siren will start screaming for help and the lights will flash. When the carjacker pulls over and turns off the ignition, the starter kill will activate, which should prompt the carjacker to then abandon your vehicle for eventual recovery.
# of Auxiliary Channels (?)Auxiliary channels are electrical outputs controlled by your keychain remote, which your installer can interface with systems in your car to allow you to operate them by remote control. Additional parts or labor will be required.

This is a great remote start system. Small and solid remote. Great range and the 2 way confirmation tone and LED works well. Highly recommend this one especially for owners of cars with the lock and unlock directly on the key.

I bought a 2012 Infiniti FX35.....the viper was already installed on the car. Wow, it is amazing......the distance and start notication peep is awesome....also, the less than 2" remote fob is great for my small purses. I will refer this model to family and friends.

My 2010 Lincoln MKX has an integrated key / door lock fob so I wanted a small and simple remote start. This Viper model fit the bill perfectly and has been trouble free over 3 years. Range is exceptional given the small size. Battery life is good and the batteries readily available.

I received this as a Christmas present for my 2010 Toyota Corolla S. It is by far the best accessory I have had installed on this car! I love that this 2-way system informs you (through beeps on the remote) if the car started or not. I like that I can use my factory keyless entry fob as well when you do or don't use the remote start. Also, range seems to be great too for the price. Maryland experiences some pretty cold winters, so to walk out to the car and have it already warm and defrosted is great feeling! Should be great in the summer as well! I would 100% recommend this product! I'll be sure to have it installed on any future vehicles I own. A must have!

Just installed it on my wife's Nissan Sentra w/ IntelliKey, I like the size of the remote and the range. It was easy to install paired with an Xpresskit DBALL2 and I'm not even a professional installer. So I'm now going to install this same setup on my daughter's '03 Mazda 6S

I had this installed a couple of days ago @ Best Buy. It work very well. I press & it makes a noise stating it has received the start. It also turns on my rear defrost!!!!..... Press the button again & unlocks the drivers door. Nice simple one button remote that does many things. Nice Nice Nice...

I just had this system installed on my 2013 Mazda CX 5. I have a push-button start. The range is great. The simplicity of use is great. My only issue is that I had to give up one of my Mazda keyless entry controls for the installation. Because I decided to buy a replacement control before installation, I ended up spending $200 (for a new remote and programming) in addition to the 4205v system cost. The bottom line .. I love the system P.S. In my case, if I remote start my car, I do not have to turn the engine off and on before driving away. This seems to be an issue with other remote start systems.

we always had viper remote starters. my husband and i just purchased a new ford edge and a ford f150, we both went with this unit, since our lock and unlock are on our key already. very happy with the purchase and the installation. Viper you should also know that the team at Krown Lakeshore Mississauga, Ontario, did a flawless install, they even vacummed our front carpets when they were done. thanks Krown Lakeshore and thank you VIPER!!!

Buy this one! - I have had three different Viper remotes, 5-button 2-way, 5-button 1-way, and this single-button and it is by far the best! Very simple and functional, and doesn't eat batteries like the others (although I hear they've re-tooled those ones). I'm buying another one of these because it is so good to me. A+ for Range, Battery Life, and Form Factor!

Have this on my Honda Pilot and I love it. Small and almost unnoticed when I carry this with my key. I don't want to carry extra remote for unlock/lock and start my car. I highly recommend this product to anyone who want to remote start only.
ben anderson,indiana7/23/2011

have it on both my 03 accord and 10 crv!!!!!! love the thing to death. will be putting this on my 98 silverado soon.
Norm - Cheyenne, WY3/7/2011

Works great on my 2008 Nissan Titan. Like the size of the remote. Still starts my truck when I'm in a building like the mall. I was parked about 10 rows away and was in a store on the other side of the mall and it still started my truck.
Cheryl - Cleveland, OH3/2/2011

This products does everything you need, the best part is by the LED confirmation, you will know if your car starts. My husband has a remote start the dealership put it, and if you're not close to the vehicle to hear the horn beep, you're out of luck. I got this for my daughter last year and for me, and it works like a charm. You can't go wrong. The distance is great on it!!
Angie-Mpls, MN11/4/2009

I love it!!! I have keyless with my 08 Ridgeline so I didn't want extra bulk to my key chain, the responder one is small, sleek, and looks great. I have had it for over a year and am problem free, still have not had to change the batteries! The distance is perfect also, for me at least. Plus the price is perfect for the average consumer.
