Default Skytech Alarm System???

Im looking for an aftermarket alarm for my 350, and I was looking at the Viper 790 series but the company I called can't get it. The did say they can get a Skytech *777 series that has a two way transmitter, remote start, adjustability in the sensitiveness in the shock alarm, and costs $399 installed, and has a lifetime warranty. Does anyone have any feedback on the Skytech brand in general? They said the Clifford equal would cost $200 more, but the only advantage is it has a 1 mile radious for the transmitter. Is it worth it? Do these costs look reasonable?

You don't typically put a remote start on a manual transmission since it's difficult to monitor whether the clutch is in and/ or the shifter is in neutral.

Not recommended.....

On the Manual tranny you have to leave the car in Nuetral to use the auto start

Or you can leave it in gear and have it lurch around... which is another feature.
