Prestige APS997Z Two-Way LCD Confirming Remote Start & Alarm 1-Mile Range

First time installing an official remote start system, i had installed a viper security and keyless entry system in an mr2 and made my own remote engine start with the aux output options.I set this system on a 01 is300, was a little bit of a pain because of the factory lock/unlock not being a basic ' negative input/output ' but it works, and it helped alot that this system had 2 set of lock/unlock outputs wires.I found a better, much more informative manual online which help figure out specifically what each wire does and also a guide to program all the available options.Also i setup a push button start for my car. For someone who knows their way with electricals, this is kind of a god mode system with options 😅Mainly got this system because my friend randomly bought this one for his car, and asked me to instal it, and i just couldn't help myself but get one as well.Definently a great buy!Edit - I've bought and installed 5 of these now, still a great kit, sadly only done one vehicle with remote start (my is300) but it still doing an amazing job, haven't had any issues. Setup with a push button kit.The power locking sometimes gets stuck, so if anyone has an IS300 or lexus with the complex lock/unlock system, you'll have to improvise a bit and make sure you have the keys to unlock incase something goes wrong

Great product. Good buy.

this is my 4th alarm purchase of this same model for my vehicles...Love the quality, great alarm,no issues,Almost as good as my Vipers.Would have saved the money from my Vipers and purchased these before I knew.

Came broken

I chose this alarm system based on previous reviews, and ones written other than on Amazon. I had installed and owned many Code Alarm systems previously, but they seem to have all but disappeared from the car security market. Prestige is marketed by Voxx electronics which also now owns Code Alarm. I have installed Viper alarms in the past, and although they seem well made, they often require more “additional equipment”, require a bit writer to do most programming changes, and unless you’re a licensed dealer they won’t provide tech support or warranty. So I took a chance on the Prestige.This wasn’t the easiest alarm for me to install, as I tried to incorporate most of the features (and there are a lot of them). I had to add 4 additional relays and three diodes that didn’t come with the kit due to my vehicle’s locking system, dome light, and exterior lights. Also note that the outputs on this system are limited to 200ma max, and if you exceed that, you’ll damage the main module and that won’t be covered by warranty. Plan your install ahead of time, as this is fairly complicated and you’ll need to do some research into your particular car’s wiring. All that being said, the tech support was A1 and very helpful. There’s also a lot of online documentation once you register the product.As far as any negatives, the main remote seems a little bit on the flimsy and cheap side compared to my other alarm remotes. It’s holding up well, but for protection I wrapped the screen with a cell phone screen saver I had laying around. Some of the options on this alarm system can only be programmed through a Flashlogic programmer. That may or may not be an issue depending on your configuration and whether you have access to a Flashlogic programmer. Some car stereo places will do this for you, for a small charge.I haven’t had any problems so far with battery drainage, or false alarms; and it’s been working very reliably since the install. I haven’t thoroughly tested the range, but it has started the vehicle from three blocks away on at least one occasion. I will update this review if any issues come up in the future, but overall I’d say it’s a good value and so far I’m happy with it’s operation.

Excelente producto, sería genial que los módulos adicionales estuvieran adjunto para seleccionar

Update, 2020/02/21: Amazon customer service is incredible. Audio360 is an absolute joke. Voxx International, the manufacturer, should be banned from their products being allowed on Amazon.My 2-way remote cracked, internally, after roughly 2 weeks. No damage to the outside, no physical abuse, etc.I contacted Audio360 twice, roughly a month apart, with no response to either. Amazon’s customer care was incredible through the entire process.I reached out to Voxx to try to get a warranty claim going, or to purchase a new remote. They asked for pictures, which I provided. After inspecting the pictures, I was told that this is “clearly physical abuse” of the product.If the outer “glass” of the screen is so soft as to allow internal damage with no external damage, I’d call this a manufacturing defect.Fast forward 7 or 8 emails, and their rep tells me that the only avenue I have is to buy a replacement remote....for $90 plus tax AND shipping.Absolutely garbage product. I’m mailing it back to them to keep, and purchasing a DEI product.———————————Fairly straightforward instructions, for someone who used to do this for a living. If you aren’t experienced with 12v automotive systems, I would not recommend a self-install.Make sure you follow the tach-programming instructions!Bang-for-your buck is amazing on this thing, though.My biggest gripe is that the LCD screen on the 2-way remote is already cracked, and my keys don’t see abuse. Best to hang it low and away from other keys, or keep it on a separate ring.

Had a local installer put it in my 2002 F250 diesel. Working great after he did a firmware update on the unit. The dome light delay was setting it off, but the alarm manufacturer had a update to address a dome light delay built into my truck. So that pretty much means that the manufacturer stands behind thier product. And that the unit can have its firmware updated. Buttons are responsive, in fact like that you have to use a little force to push the button. And that the buttons are slightly recessed on the remote. No accidentally pressed on your possession. I'd buy this alarm again.
