How hard is the installation and whats a typical price? I think I want the Viper 791xv.

 

How inclined are you to disassembling your car?

Can you use a digital multimeter?

 

If you've never installed one before I wouldn't recomend trying to learn on a newer Nissan. They are fairly straight forward, but there are a couple small things here and there that can confuse a first timer. I would say the hardest part is running wires in to the doors, followed by the second starter wire. After that, its cake.

 

It is not too bad at all, but I hope you are somewhat already technically educated.

 

I am already going to disassemble my car for the tvandnav2go, etc.

and

whats that?

What if I dont do the window thing?

 

With all due respect if you dont know what a DMM/Digital MultiMeter is, leave the task to a proffesional.

 

Hmm, good question, related: my audio install is all self install, as is my CarPC (still in progress), and I've done audio installs of somewhat less complexity on 3 other cars, although all of them included replacing amps and speakers.

Whats going to be more difficult/or cause me more problems for a car alarm/remote start install?

You know, I'd say that a bit differently.

DON'T TOUCH YOUR WIRING IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT A METER IS!

 

Bah, I know what a DMM is, and use pne regulary. I know you were talking to the other guy, though.

Id recommend leaving it up to a pro. Plus the vipers are suspossed to be sold and installed @ a authorized dealers only(self install=no warranty). The running wires into the door isn't for the windows its for integrating into the factory alarm and door locks. The g35 also has a microchip in the key which has to be integrated, and if you have an intella key its alarm only as nobody has a integration module out yet.

 

I just spent 3 hours last weekend running wire into the doors for new speakers, so I know all about that. I have an 05 coupe, so it's not the intellikey, and since I put my entire audio system in myself as well, I could care less about warranties.

The only thing I am concerned about is if there is something drastically different from wiring an audio system

Theres nothing extra needed to do the intelligent keyed cars. One extra wire and its done. Who told you it couldnt be done and more parts were needed???

 

Directed electronics, but maybe that has changed since I last checked.

 

Thats odd, DEI never told me anything different than just a 556U. Did my car and quite a few others with the Ikey...

 

Huh, well I guess I'd say it goes back to which tech one gets when one calls. They also dont have anything on the tech site about the 06's, and theres nothing posted about what to use on the m35/45. I commend you on getting it done though.

Back to task on hand, installing an alarm isnt to bad, installing a remote start is far different story.
