Viper Alarm Install - BMW Forum

SiGmA_X · 07-01-2004, 12:48 PM

I have done a few alarm installs (VW's mostly, one or two Honda's..) in my past, but never one on a BMW. I am picking up a 93 325is tonight, and want to install my remote start alarm on it. I can do the wireing and configureing, no worrys there. What I need to know is, is there an immobilizer on the car, and what type of alarm comes stock? Is it easy to bypass? Also, do BMW's bitch about remote starts? My first time installing it on a VW was a bitch, but that was cuz of the RPM sensor.. Easy fix

Thanks!

hey another person from Oregon. whoohoo...

try a stellar alarm, if you haven't already purchased the viper. they are plug-n-play and i dobelive they take care of the cut off for you...

Yay your from Oregon! Our VW club has a Eugene Chapter, I'm going to be down there in the E36 this weekend picking stuff up. Are there any more Bimmer people from Eugene?

I already have the alarm, so thats sort of out.. I'll talk to an installer buddy, but does anyone have first hand experiance w/ a non-Stellar alarm install?

Can I get the schematic for the 93 325is wireing harness off of you? The kick-panel harness and behind the glove box, perferabily. Anything I'll need for my remote start setup.. As well, where is the tach sensor wire? Do you have AIM? If so, hit me up at "sigma2kx" I could reallly use some help tomorrow, the BMW wireing looks much diff
