I can't remember the name of mine, something like Camstar or so... I like it in that it works from a distance of over a 1/2 mile. No matter where I am in my house or at work she will work. However, I had problems last winter as when it was very cold out the dang thing wouldn't turn over the engine long enough to allow it to fire. In effect, last year if it was colder then 10F outside the remote starter was WORTHLESS. I have a new battery in the Accord this year with more CCA, and I now run Amsoil so I am hoping for better results. GOod luck, I would just have them install it as that way it is a lifetime warantee. Good luck.
