Maybe worth checking out(?):
A local Dodge dealer tried to sell me a beat-to-death 2000 CC Dak with the
Commando RS-COMBO installed. It seemed to work well (for as long as I saw
it) and he said it was a "premium" and "better than Chrysler" system. I
don't know about that, but for just over $100, I can get everything I want
(keyless entry, remote start, security). I'm still looking around, though.
Disclaimer: This was the same guy who told me I could NEVER get into a V8
Dak for less than $23K. At least, not when he had 25-30 3.9's on the lot!
