$600? For around $100 and you doing the work you could install a full alarm (with door monitoring, shock sensor, and siren), remote start, keyless entry (locking and unlocking), door launchers (one or both doors) and many other programmable options like timed start, window control, ect. A few more bucks will get you paging. All these functions are integrated into one small off the shelf box and easy to wire. Dual remotes (with or without paging) are included. I spent time analyzing both controller specs and the car's wiring to find a commercially available box that would integrate into the car's wiring with a minimum of fuss. It's also a high frequency long range rolling code system so it's secure and you don't need to be anywhere near the car to make it work. And work well it does. Btw, unless your new system provides more than trigger signals and can handle the locking logic (or you intend to do some wiring changes) you're still going to need a lock module. Just my two cents...
