I installed a crimestoper CS-2011.
Over 7 hours to install.
Just make sure you know all features and choose what you need. Mine was first installed with all alarm features, and was conflicting with the factory alarm. Also had the bad thing of locking/unlocking doors at inconvenient times. A second visit to the shop fixed by re-programming the unit. Since then is perfect. I use it with the vallet key, as the original remote is no longer necessary. I have a 1995 s-320.
Paid arround $400 installed.

I visited 3 stores, one in the Bronkx and 2 in White Plains. All of then claimmed they could do it. I did it in the bronks for convenience.
Next week, same crew will install in our ML.
Those starters are so convenient that should come stock

no need to. I use the vallet key.
All still works with the IR in the flip key, but now it's for spare.
On the ML, they will need to use one of the flip keys as part of the system. Operation will be the same as in the S, with a vallet key.
