Bulldog is good stuff
By Lee Urbanowicz
I have used several Bulldog systems and have had good luck with them all.
Because they are sold in local stores, auto parts stores and Meijers, I have replaced remotes without shipping.
I have one like this now and am ordering another for my wife's new Lincoln.

The only problem I've had is on my car which I park all summer, the remote eventually drains the battery. Unpluging the connector from the unit solved that problem.

Uses AAA battery so replacement is easy and cheap.
Range is good and they offer wiring diagrams and manuals on the web.

Bulldog 500 Remote Start
By Neil
[[ASIN:B0002Q7L90 Bulldog Deluxe 500 Two-Way Remote Starter with LCD Remote] JANUARY 2012 Installed this device on 1999 Ford Expedition. Did a bit of research before purchase and install and decided as it appeared to be a DIY supported product. Took approximately 9 hours, principally as a result of double checking and soldering all wire connections. No T-Cable available for this ford vehicle. Install went fairly smoothly. Install was completed and unit worked first time, although when u start unraveling all the wires u will definitely have reservations. Install manual was clear and was install bible. Came with a DVD which had poor quality. I did call tech support before install, to find out about any short-cuts or ideas for this model vehicle, They were available to answer the call promptly. Looking to install similar units in my other vehicles and will probably lean toward bulldog. Amazon base pricing is good, but then tax and shipping brings up slightly, however well below mfg list and/ or cost if installation outsourced. Would be great if there was a better way though to manage all the wires and maybe combine the module and bypass device. My guess is all mfg configure similarily. Would recommend this product to any hands on DIY who has patience for this type of stuff and likes working in tight places to include under a vehicles dash and adjacent firewalls. Good luck and Enjoy!

Update 09/2012: Since original installation 01/2012, which was nine 9 months ago, the door unlock portion of module not functioning properly. Was hard to get through to tech support and then customer service for RMA; but did receive an RMA-. Unit being returned for repair/replacement. who knows what they will do. Disappointed that they have no mechanism to do an exchange or reverse credit to get another unit which will result in an additional visit under the dash once i receive back. I think they could work on that aspect of their operation. Otherwise, unit did work well for the first 9 months. Not sure how other manufacturers handle these situations.

Works well, but would like higher capacity channels
By YS
Pro:
Works as advertised. Have had no issues using all the features. Information provided on their web site is excellent.

Con:
1. Most of the output channels are rated to sink 200mA only, so needed to add relays. Higher current output channel would make installation easier.
2. Some of the wires are a bit short.
3. Temperature feedback feature is nice, but would like the ability to locate the temperature sensor away from the RES module.
4. For multiple button operations, such as starting, need to push the button slowly.

Overall, I'm satisfied with the system. Much cheaper than premium brand system, and works equally well.
