4.0 out of 5 stars Inexpensive, Lots of options, Works well, September 5, 2007

By	Riiiick "A day without Sunshine... Is like Ni... (Megapolis - East) - See all my reviews

Added this to 10-yr-old BMW convertible that had no Keyless Entry, but was pre-wired for it.
Prewiring made it pretty easy to install, all the connections were in one spot.
Still, the instruction manual was a little difficult to decipher for a cookbook mechanic like me.
However, after "decryption", the system worked 1st time and every time.

EDIT: Range of the remote is quite good
- Other reviewer had it "professionally installed", and I'll bet that they just rolled the antenna wire up - instead of extending it.
That would give you poor range.
I've found range wth stock antenna-wire is 50-60 feet.
If you need more range, just add another few feet to the antenna wire;
it's just a wire, nothing more.

This kit is almost a universal one since there are a LOT of programmable options,
which -if you add a couple of 12v Relays and a siren- can turn it into an alarm,
get it to roll your power windows and/or close sunroof, do the remote starter thing, etc., etc.
I have it set-up so one of the remote buttons closes the convertible top and then rolls up the windows!

Excellent buy for the $.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good price, works great, nice addition to my wife's car, November 10, 2006

By	Concerned One "Thrashfan" (Clarinda, IA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

My wife has a 2001 honda civic, and it had everything but keyless entry and remote trunk pop. I did not want remote start, so this worked great for me. The model I got was the valet 712T. I had this installed professionally for a good price, and it works fantastic. It features a panic alarm, lock/unlock, and I got the optional servo to pop the trunk using the auxillary input button. Before my wife had lever pop trunk, now she can do it while her hands are full after shopping. I think you will like this as much as she does.

5.0 out of 5 stars DEI 712T - works for me, February 4, 2009

By	William A. Stephens (Clearwater, FL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This remote keyless entry system works great for me in my 1999 Avalon. The range is 20-30' with the antenna below the dashboard, and I am very pleased.

Determining which wires to use during installation was a challenge. Besides the multitude of wires in the car, I did not find the instructions especially easy to understand as to the exact function of each device wire. I expect that installers understand the instructions very clearly.

I did not bother to hook up the horn and lights due to access to the suggested wires. The locking and unlocking function was my goal, and that works.

Considering the replacement price of OEM fobs, the price for this entire system with 2 fobs was excellent.
