tough but effective.......2007-11-20
I am not a mechanic or an electrician, but I am knowledgable in both subjects. I installed two of these units myself and they work great. They are VERY difficult to install yourself. Most cars require you buy additional security bypass units, so call the manufacturer and make sure you have all the parts before you start the project.
Don't Buy.......2007-07-27
Even installers I took it to didn't recommend it. You cannot it install it yourself, unless you are a mechanic. The cheapest one to install it was $200.00. i returned it, they sent a tape, the ad stated DVD. They claimed Amazon misrepresented their product, they only returned $10.00 of the $70.00 I paid. Owner, manager never returned my calls. They claim I didn't return one of the parts (lie) and totally refused to stand by their product. i finally gave up accepted my loss. Call Amazon first, to see if they will stand by this, the seller will not. They were rude, and could care less. This was a Christmas gift for my husband and I was totally disappointed and disgusted. ONE STAR A JOKE, THEY DIDN'T HAVE NO STARS!!!

Great product for the price - Worthless tech support.......2007-12-02
I have had the unit for over 2 years now and it works great! I use it every day in the winter and often in the summer. It was tricky to install but I have a manual transmission so there were additional steps that I had to do to get it to work. It honestly took me 2 weeks before I got it all hooked up and figured out. The tech support is terrible and never were able to help me with any installation questions so you better be good with electronics and good at troubleshooting problems if you want to attempt to install this yourself. I saved $400 in installation costs by doing it myself and I learned about my cars electrical system while doing it so it was defenitly worth it. It has tons of features and has a long range which is the reason I got it.
Non-existent tech support.......2007-08-03
I purchased this product a little over a year ago and it worked fine until about 5 months ago. The transmitter will not start the vehicle and only unlocks the doors after about 5 trys. I emailed their support several times for help but never received a response. I even called and got nowhere just like the other reviewer. Stay away from this product, you get what you pay for!
Best Value Auto Starter.......2007-05-13
This starter system has the longest range of any I have seen. The two way communication between the remote and the data unit are unique in these devices. You get actual confirmation of any action submitted with the remote. There is no guessing if you car started or not, you know by looking at the remote status screen. You can even read the tempurature of your car interior.
Pro: two way communication, several auto start modes-by specific time,by interior temp,by time interval.Remote uses AAA battery.
Cons: the remote is expensive to replace.
Non-existent tech support.......2007-04-20
This remote starter worked well for three weeks. Then the keychain remote went haywire. Attempts to contact tech support using the phone numbers provided repeatedly failed. There is no e-mail address for contact. The web site for ordering new remote is down for construction. Bottom line is the product is probably a good product; the company deserves thumbs down for their tech support (or lack thereof).

RS 1100 Remote Starter.......2007-09-11
Once installation was complete, the unit worked perfectly. However, the installation was more difficult than it needed to be.
First, the installation instruction referred to a WHITE wire that was to be connected to a bypass module. This part of the instruction was vague in a couple of ways. 1) It did not specify what WHITE wire it was referring to while other areas of the instruction were quite specific (i.e. - BLACK wire with the Blue stripe on the 16-pin harness). 2) It said that the WHITE wire was to be connected to the BLUE wire on the bypass module. However, since there are mutliple different bypass modules available using a variety of color codes, this step created confusion.
Second, when it came time to connect the various plugs to the starter unit, there was no mention of a need to initialize the unit by stepping on the brake pedal and pressing the start button on the remote. Without this information, when I plugged in the unit, it began a repetitive clicking that would not stop. I had to unplug it and call for Technical Assistance to find out what I was missing.
Third, I found the "unlimited technical support" to be somewhat limited. When I ran into the aforementioned problems on a Saturday, I tried calling the 800 number only to find that technical assistance was not available on weekends. So I had to pack it in and wait until after work on Monday. Then when I called on Monday, it took over 30 minutes on hold before I actually had a person on the other end of the line. To his credit, the tech knew exactly what the problem was and I was able to finish the install in short order.
Overall, I am happy with the remote starter, but displeased with the quality of the supplied instructions and the limited availability of the technical support.
Works well, a little difficult to install.......2007-06-24
Bought this for my son's 05 Corolla. Buying the wiring harness easily cut the install time in half. Make sure to check Bulldon's web site to see if they have vehicle specific instructions for your car. Even with pictures from the web site, took longer than anticipated to install.
Got the damn thing working, only to quit. Began re-checking all the wiring. Put a paperclip to bypass the fuse and everything worked. Blew two of the supplied fuses.
Once installed, we're pleased with the functionality.
good buy.......2007-01-10
technical support from jbs for this bulldog remote start is excellant. the product meets all of my expectations and is very resonably priced. if you are looking to install a remote starter yourself, then this is the one to buy.
Works fairly well except for a few minor problems.......2006-12-15
I spent much time asking tech support questions prior to the install since it is my first attempt doing something like this. The VCR tape is worth the time to watch, and I watched it several times before and during the install. It went fairly well, except for needing some resistors (not included) and having a remote with sticky buttons, which they have agreed to replace. The actual install took about 5-6 hours on a system with no factory alarm. Overall I am very satisfied with the remote starter, and found tech support reasonably available (busy season?) and willing to help. The written manual is a bit confusing, as is online info, but tech support is very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. They helped me immensely. I love having the remote starter. I recommend it highly.
Worked as what I want, but not so easy to set it up.......2006-07-21
Got two of them 2 month ago and set it up through a whole day. It really took me some time to figure out the right wire, because the diagram on their website is not so accurate for one of my car.(for 1996 avalon, the color of the wire for the door is not right). But once I set it up, it worked perfectly. I can control it at about 100 feet away from it. although it's not 400 feet, it is good enough. I gave it 4 stars only because it is not as easy as what I thought to set it up, but maybe it is different in your case, depends on how good you are at electrics. :-)

anti theft.......2007-07-07
i had instaled the system in november 2006 and by july 2007 it was completely useless it would not respond to the remotes and i could not even reset the system i had to uninstall the whole thing and now my vehicle factory anti-theft system will not shut off and can not start my car it will cost me about $150 for diagnosis to see what the problem is.
Medium Difficulty Installation but works well . . . mostly.......2006-12-14
Okay, several different aspects in my mind regarding this product.
Installation - (To start, my experience level includes several radios installed, cigarette lighters, powered rear view mirrors etc. I own wire cutters, voltometer, electrical tape, etc.) I pre-read the instruction manual, went through all of the parts in the box, went to the website and read any information that I could find relative to my auto there and printed the wiring guide for my car (Toyota Sienna). This preparation and especially the wiring guide turned out to be a huge help. It was during this phase that I discovered the antenna clips (necessary to get the extended range) were missed in my box. More on that later. It took me probably 7-8 hours to install, at least 2 of which were taking the dashboard apart and putting it and all the wiring back together afterward. With the wiring diagram for my car, it was fairly simple to do the ignition, blower and power wires. The brake, parking lights, dome lights and door trigger were a little tougher, and the power door wires were the most difficult (just to locate them, even with the wiring diagram.) I was unable to install the hood switch to prevent the starter from starting when the hood is up. That was because it took me probably another 2 hours to try and find a way through my firewall for the wire. I never could find anything that I could see from the interior or under the hood to put the wire through. I ended up by-passing it and taping it off. I made sure the warning label was prominently displayed to avoid any accidents. Also, make sure that you go to the website and see what relays you would need for your car. You're almost guaranteed to need at least one, probably two if not more. These are not included with the kit. Ended up needing one to install the ignition break, so I skipped it and will have to go back later to do it. Oh, and the installation video was helpful to just better understand the process and what to do. I've seen it in DVD form on some sites. I'd go for that. Videos are a pain to skip, rewind, etc. Be sure to read the insert regarding the unit starting in safety mode. All it does is click and flash the lights. You need to follow a process on the insert to get the unit out of safety mode. I missed the insert and spent some time wondering what I'd done wrong.
Operation - So far everything works great, although some features are not quite as advertised. (More on that later.) The range is about 30 feet, as I do not have the antenna installed yet (no clips) so I'm using the stock unit antenna. The car starts and stops perfectly as detailed. Pit stop works fine. Car unlocks and locks as it should and I really like the feature where I press the brake pedal after the keys are in and the doors all automatically lock, and when I turn the car off they all unlock. The two glitches are that when I unlock the car, the dome lights are supposed to stay on for a minute, but they go out after 20 seconds. The second glitch is that when you turn on the key or press the brake pedal, the lights are supposed to go out instantly, but they don't. They stay on for their full time limit. Fortunately, these are not big issues and I'm happy with the unit's performance after about one week since installation. As for the alarm . . . I chose not to connect the horn or siren since I hate listening to car alarms go off all hours of the night. I may go back and install the ignition break which will protect against hot wiring and leave it at that. So, unable to comment on the alarm side of things. Testing the long range antenna, I was able to start it from a good distance away (sorry, no measurement to provide. It was just a long ways, maybe a couple hundred feet.)
Support - the company I purchased the product through, Electrogalaxy, was very good to work with. They sent emails detailing each step of ordering, payment, shipping, etc. They were good to respond about the missing clips and managed to get the product company to ship out the clips (although they have not arrived yet.) As for BullDog, I emailed them about the clips and the glitches with product performance and haven't heard a word back from them. It's been nearly a week. I can live with the unit as is, so I haven't followed up, but that was my experience with them.
So, overall I would recommend the system understanding that it will take time to install, will not be easy (but will be doable) and that there will likely be a product glitch or two that you can live with (based on my experience and other reviews I've read). Remote entry is always nice, especially with kids and the remote start will be a real treat on very hot and cold days.
(Sorry for the verbosity, but I did not find enough reviews prior to purchasing to really feel I could make an informed decision, so I wanted to be detailed about my experience. I'd be happy to share more if you want to drop me an email.)
RS1300E, powerful system, many options.......2005-02-25
Just installed this system in an older Range Rover. Bulldog's on-line wiring diagram for the vehicle was extremely helpful. RS1300 is relatively easy to integrate into the vehicle. Programming options for the system are numerous & are helpful in making the system work with unusual vehicles such as the Rover. Their tech service line was very helpful, and when the unit failed, they replaced it without question.
This is a complex system. Not for the novice, particularly if you're working on an unusual vehicle. Some of the programable features are tricky to set up, but the instructions are complete, somewhat technically written but the tech line is always there if needed.
Great Remote Starter if you can figure out installation........2004-05-31
First, if you are not an expert at vehicle wiring, electronics, etc then don't even consider any Bulldog Security product. Their tech support (phone or email) is as bad as it gets. It's like they read one email and put the answer in the next email recieved. I managed to install an RS1300E in a Chevy Truck but only because I had bought the T-Harness adaptor, I had the complete set of factory service manuals for this truck, digital voltmeter to test circuits and expert knowledge on vehicle wiring. The remote starter works well and has excellent range, but some of the other functions do not work as stated or described. Emails and calls to Bulldog result in answers that either do not make sense or seem to answer a different question. Their products however do seem to be good quality but they are just not installable by the average do-it-yourselfer.

Easy to setup, works well........2007-03-01
I bought and installed this unit a month ago. After getting the wiring diagram from Bulldog website, it was somewhat easy to install this unit on my Hyundai Accent (beginners might take more time). A lot of time was spent on looking and checking for the right wire to hook up to the device. Since this kit is make for both diesel and unlead cars; There is a lot of wires you won't need for your car. So don't bother to find all the wires in your car. If you run into any problem, check Bulldog's FAQ on their website, or you can call or email them.
The manual was a little bit misleading for my car. It asked me to get relay to hook up to the parking light. But I was able to successfully hook up the parking light without the relay. And it is working fine for me for three weeks. The range was poor; It was definitely less than .25 mile.

Fairly easy to install, lacking range.......2007-12-18
I installed this starter myself in a 2006 Hyundai Tucson. The instructions were fairly easy to follow. I found a wiring diagram on their web site for my vehicle, but it wasn't complete. I couldn't figure out the locks or headlights, so I left those disconnected. It's hard to find wiring information on my vehicle, so I don't blame their product. The range of the remote isn't as good as advertised, even with fresh batteries. That's my only disappointment and why I gave it 3 stars.
nice remote starter.......2007-02-06
Installed this on a 2006 Honda Element, would have been much easier if I had not done it in the middle of winter. Good instructions, they even provided a knife and tape to make your splices. I should have used "scotch lock" wire taps on the smaller, low current wires like the dome light and door locks. Tach connection not used. Note: Honda dealer wanted $150 for another key to put in the by-pass module, I used the valet key that came with the car. Cut off the key part so no one can steal the car with that key!

Great product!.......2007-12-15
The remote starter does for me everything it says it does. I installed it last winter on a 98 Audi A4 and it works fine. Instalation was a breeze (assuming you are friends w/ wires, a multimeter and taking your car's dashboard apart). There are quite a few features on this unit (lots of wires to connect, so if you are not car/wire savvy, I wouldn't recomend, since I'm savvy and it took me about 5 hours (2.5hrs on two separate days) to get it all in. What I love the most about it is the two-way function. From anywhere that I start the car, I can always know if it started or not. This kind of unit installed by a professional shop would run you more than $400, so this is a great deal, and I've installed Bulldog products on my parent's, friend's, and family's cars for years and never had major problems (nothing that wasn't caused by my goofiness).
simple installation.......2007-12-11
This is one of the best remote car starters i have ever purchased. The instalation went very well and only took a couple of hours. I love using this unit in front of people that have other remote starters because my car will always start from no matter where and they have to be five feet in front of their car for theirs to work. I am very happy i bought this unit and would recomend it for anyone else.
Do Not Recommend.......2007-12-01
Delux5000. I purchased this item to install on our 2005 Toyota Camry. I am an Engineer and I have spent over 16 hours attempting to install this. I am giving up and am looking for a local shop to finish my attempts. If they won't, I will have to trash it. This is much too complex and locating vehicles wires to splice into is very difficult. I even purchased the special "T" harness they recommended, which works good but the rest of the vehicles wires are extreemly difficult to locate. The accompanying instruction manual's wire list conflicts with itself and with "on-line" wire list for our car. Technican Help call number is not available on Saturdays like they said they would be, and when you call on the week day they expect you to be in the car to converse with them.
