What's up everybody. I was wondering if anyone knows, how hard would it be to do an alarm install all by yourself?

Yea, i know i can just take it to best buy or wherever and pay labor for someone else to install but the reason why i want to know how to install is so i can uninstall when i get a new car. :)

Btw the alarms i was thinking about were the viper 5900 and one of the clifford matrix models.

As label said, it is just connecting the output wires from the alarm to the corresponding wires in the car. Don't take it to Best Buy, they will do a piss poor job, guaranteed!

Vipers are great, my dad had one in his Camry. They are quite expensive though, I believe he payed $200 for it.
