| Looking for remote keyless entry system
I am looking for a basic 4-wire setup with remotes, just wanting to see what local pricing is on this.
Feel free to quote install too; would only take me less than 30 mins to install myself, so a pro with good strippers and crimpers would take even faster.
This is for an E30 BMW 3-series with central locking, install in trunk: http://zoso.no-ip.org/318i-ke.html
Thanks

You'll find a lot of shops won't do this for you. We did one but found that Omega is kind of...ummm...JUNK. It failed after a few days of use. Our customer was choked because we had to remove it and replace it with something that actually worked. It sucked having to charge him twice. The company he bought it off of refused to warranty it so now he's got it sitting somewhere in his house collecting dust.
I used to work for a shop that carried Omega and I did all of their returns. Their failure rate was up around the 10-15% mark. That is ridiculously high in this industry. Compustar is quite low at about 2-3% max.
You get what you pay for!

Thanks,
Im not looking for the Omega in particular, just wanting to find any straight up remote keyless (non alarm, non auto-stat) system I can get locally rather than a cheap one off ebay.
I posted the link as an example of the install, so you guys could quote if you wanted, otherwise just looking to see how much I can get a more reputable/reliable remote keyless system locally.
