So far I have had no problems with this unit. Circuit City was great.

Do you have an 05 or 06. I was told at Best Buy that they couldn't do an 06. I guess I'll have to check out C.C.

I meant build date. I was told the ones built in 06 used a different passlock system that couldn't be bypassed yet. But that was a month ago, they may have something now.

Re: Remote Starter / Alarm systems.
There is an addtional bypass kit needed in addition the actual remote starter system. There was not even any question whether the system could be installed on my 06. I've had it for a week. NO PROBLEMS. I am very pleased with the system. Install took about 4 hours. I suggest you pay for it prior to the install date and leave your ATM, Credit cards home. 4 hours alone in Circuit City with Credit cards is extremely dangerous. 
hopefully the links work:
Starter: Valet 561R Remote Start/Keyless Entry

Bypass: DEI GM Immobilizer Bypass

Good Luck

Re: Remote Starter / Alarm systems.
I stopped over at Circuit City this evening. For the $300 remote starter, they told me I would need the bypass and a special key. Two weeks ago, they told me I would need the bypass but no key. They also said that the installation would make my dash alarm light stay permanently lit while the starter was on. Does someone not know what they are talking about???
So which model gives me good range, defrost control, and a/c control?
I defer to you, the experts, versus the Circuit City "pros".
