Default Need a shop for alarm + remote starter installation

I recently moved to McLean, VA as you all know. Do you guys know any local shop that does good work on alarm and remote starter installation? Or any guy you know that does it on the side and does good work? Obviously I'm looking for good work for a VERY reasonable price. This is for my girlfriend's AUTOMATIC G35.

I recall there're some mobile service that'd come to my place and install the alarm. Not sure if they're willing to come to McLean, VA though?

By the way I know nothing about electronic as you all know. So I don't know if I have all the parts needed.


I know I'll need a spare key as well. I do have that.

You may or may not need a spare key, most newer transponder modules don't; mine didn't.

My friend Alan who owns one-fifty-one motorsports in Annapolis did mine for me for 100 bucks under the table. My remote start/alarm and install should have been like 700 dollars all together. Yay for free parts and friends who know how to install them. He does really good work and has been doing stereo and electronics for many years, and is now starting to get into performance. Let me know if you want his number. But you would have to come out here to Anne Arundel. We could make a day of it!!!

You think you can give him a call for me? I already have the parts! Just need to get a quote on installation. Yea we can meet out in Anne Arundel county. We can actually go get some free Chinese buffet at my aunt's restaurant in Glen Burnie (Right across from MVA on Route 2).
