i would do it. i know nothing about the remote starts on ebay, but i'm on ebay everyday, and you can find some really good deals. just get a brand that you've heard of.

Hit up Metric Audio if your looking for some cheap electronics. I personally haven't ordered from them yet so I don't know if everything is legit.

But their prices are outrageous, $89 for a remote start 2-way alarm, don't think that includes shipping. Along with some other stuff.

Maybe your right. $89 alarm to protect a $14,000 car may not be a good idea....
