We purchased two of this for our cars. Within 2 months, all the video remotes failed. Then the LEDs failed. Then the sensors failed. Then the video tranmissions failed. Beware of the carbon fiber look. They are not carbon fiber. Just cheap plastic, designed to look like carbon fiber. The remote's fail so easily. Two of them also broke. This is not even handled by kids.
You can't call the company for support. They will force you to call some retailer, which is next to imposisble to contact, and they charge a premium for replacing items even under warranty.

The manufacturer don't respect any warranty. They're based in LA. You try to contact them with e-mail and they just ignored us.

We spend $800+ for both units and $200 installation charges of each of them. We could have just trashed $1000 into the waste basket.
Don't be decieved by the cool look and hitech promises.
The bad thing was that we put one of them on our most expensive/rare car and now we are forced to pull it out and trash it.

Our Alarm installer, just warned us, saying the product is pretty flimsy and the components are not good. But we just took a chance on it and regret it.
We just dont' want others to make such mistake by it's hitech looks. Even if it's free , it's not worth buying and then paying all the installation charges, just to rip it off and throw it away later.
Do your research and go to your local/well known auto security/audio installation shop and get opinion on something good and reliable that will last.
