I don't understand that, why not? If you want to buy something you should me able to buy it. That'd be like Best Buy not selling me a videogame unless I let the salesman come over to my house and put it in the PS2 for me.

If you want to install it yourself they should let you. They should just automatically void the warranty if you do it yourself if that's what they're worried about. That could turn away a lot fo potential business by not letting people by what they want. </font>[/QUOTE]Selling something and not covering it with warranty is illegal in Canada. Something like 99.9% of warranty returns on alarms and starters are install related or no fault found. The cost of shipping one DIY alarm back to warranty pretty much wipes out any profit made. It's just not worth it.

hmmm, didn't know it was illegal up there.

I think there is actually a law in the U.S. as well. Probably not well publicized.

frozen, heres the difference between you installing it and a professional doing it. if you f@ck the car up then your going to have to deal with a costly repair smoking a computer breaking pannels who knows what. now if you have a place do it and they screw it up then you have the piece of mind knowing that they are going to be responsible and have to fix it. thats not a very easy car for a person not famliiar with them. it will have a transponder bypass and god knows what else you'd have to do. and without access to proper channels to get wiring information or not you may aswell light the car on fire and burn it to the ground intentionally. but giver if your really serious. just dont come crying when it hits the fan.
