  1. Will

    This works great with my Compustar remote start system!

  2. loomguy

    I needed to add a backup sensor alarm to my car and after spending a lot of time chatting and being assured this would work for that and finding it difficult to schedule and install, I was able to schedule an installation. When I arrived for the installation the installer told me this would not accomplish what I wanted to so I had to reurn it.

  3. Rick

    This was a supplement to my remote start but glad I purchased it as I’m enjoying the function and security more than I thought I would.

  4. Grundy

    Remote start works really well from key fob and/or your phone.

  5. JonathanH

    Seems like a pretty decent ad on only time will tell

  6. Boom

    Have only had this a short time but so far so good.
    The tech. has it set so even hitting my door jam the alarm goes off. hopefully I will never need it but a little peace of mind.

    Posted a premature 5 star review on compu junk item already but bbuy won’t let me update review on that 2 way drone remote system…. POOR QUALITY HARDWARE BUYER BEWARE! The Installation on this item was impeccably done by the Bestbuy team at my location… Unfortunately the CompuStar brand hardware build quality is poor at best.

    Software is awesome and all of the options are amazing… But when the hardware fails… It’s completely useless and leaves your vehicle vulnerable.

    I paid a lot of money for the system and I’ve always used viper systems in all of my vehicles. The viper systems and hardware ARE FAR superior to the CompuStar brand.

    I am now facing having to have the system uninstalled, I am outside of my 60 day total tech plus return window by a few days. Not that that matters as the Best Buy stores don’t have anything in stock and you have to order it from them and wait for it anyhow.

    Total tech plus is only as good as the store that provides it!

    I have had the Viper 2 way remote in my work vehicle for over three years and it’s NEVER FAILED & the hardware still works like it did the first day it was installed. In comparison the CompuStar hardware, namely the 2 way Drone Key fob Has a horrible build quality, the plastic screen is cracked already, the battery does not last long, the horn for the alarm system sounds muffled already, I am very dissatisfied and “upset” that I now have to have it uninstalled, order more items that will not be available at my Best Buy store, spend additional monies & time & not to mention damage to my wiring system on my vehicle by uninstalling this and installing another system just to get what I paid for in the first place.

    Will never Reccomend CrapuStar products to ANYONE.

    This system was installed on my personal vehicle which does not get used as much as my work vehicle just to give a comparison of how much less the system has been used over the past couple of months in comparison to a similar 2 way system in my work truck that gets used and abused DAILY. The viper system that has lasted over three years and never failed but unfortunately doesn’t have all the great software this system offers.

    Don’t waste your time with this junk. Buy a viper system

  8. Madmave

    This item is amazing and the install was done very well and very professional.

  9. Unknown

    Great accessory allowed my new electronic purchase from BB to work perfectly wit my OEM equipment. A+A+A+

  10. CelebrityChef

    This is a great add on. You can tell the difference from your car and the next person vehicle

  11. Drew

    By now im sure you’ve heard of the hyundai and kia challenges on social media where they break into and sometimes take them on a joyride. This is possible due to certain models not having an immobilizer, making it wasy to steal the car with something as common as a usb cable. Needless to say, this was a priority after two breakins in a 2 month time frame.

  12. Wildbill

    Works great i added it to the remote start system .

  13. Lorena

    The sound of this alarm is great really loud. security works very well

  14. Customer

    Got it installed for a month now and very satisfief with the product and installation. Best buy tech team was better than many of the delearship techs. Very good customer handling and a explained the functions in detail..!

  15. Justadude

    Still early to tell how long this will last but for the last few days of owning this, it has been amazing. The security features work as intended according to the kit. Happy with the results.

  16. IsraelM

    Excellent item I like it very much very convenient

  17. Guru

    Good add on kit…works really well…keeps criminals away!!!!

  18. AjTheNinja

    Great add on that increases the level of security.

  19. PayamG

    Typical allowing alarm system. Randomly goes off. I close my tailgate and it triggers the alarm.

  20. Rook512

    Does everything we need. Drone app is easy to use.

  21. TampaBayTitan

    This is the add on alarm kit for Compustar’s remote starters. This kit provides the alarm speaker and the shock sensor which turns your remote starter into a true alarm. I had this installed with the DC3 remote starter and am very happy with the way they both work. The alarm offers a lot of customizable settings and is a must have if you want to deter criminals from breaking into your vehicle. Of course it won’t prevent them from getting into your car but at least with a siren going off they’d be more inclined to move on rather then ransack your car with the alarm going off. One of the biggest reasons I purchased this from BestBuy is because you get a lifetime warranty on the alarm and the intstall and can get it serviced at any BestBuy location if you end up having issues. BestBuy did a flawless job with the install and I couldn’t have been happier. Highly Recommend.

  22. Dave

    Nice add on. Hopefully to stop car thief that has been going on.

  23. EdwardM

    The product is very nice i like i recommend is good

  24. Jeremy

    Love our alarm best buy did a great job installing it

  25. DennisD

    Excellent security system. Very happy with the features and ease of use.

  26. BirthdayMan

    The add on was a plus. Helps out with security. And the price is great for that amount.

  27. Smitty

    Needed this to protect our 2014 Jeep Wrangler. Initially we thought it would let work because the doors do not have power locks and therefore no sensors if someone tries to break windows. But it does pick up vibrations and does the job.
    Caught it on sale for $119 and had it installed with the remote start.

  28. AustinP

    Alarm not super sensitive n its loud but not train horn deafening loud. Wanted the truck button to work but it didnt have it for 2007 tahoe

  29. JgZ1

    Won’t ever buy anything from this store on this department!
    No words to describe how I feel about them.

  30. Chloe

    I love having the safety and security of extra protection for my car for a decent price and a quick install. Definitely worth it.

  31. Recordplayer

    Great item with really good range. Installation was flawless by the Best Buy team!

  32. Unknown

    This product was purchased out of necessity due to someone attempting to steal my car. I own a Kia Soul. The self starter and alarm system are a Godsend to me and my family because without my car, I am unable to work. I am thankful for Best Buy and the team who installed the equipment, I highly recommend them for all of my electronic related needs and customer service!

  33. Heriberto

    This adon is a great alarm siren its loud and efficient

  34. Kooldaddy

    Quality product.. i love it … love it love it …

  35. ErinH

    Needed an upgrade to my old alarm system, this one is working great so for, had about a month now.

  36. JessicaC

    Wonderful service at this store. The crew was very helpful

  37. JoyceO

    This seems to work only if someone is attempting to steal your vehicle. I thought the alarm would sound if someone id trying to break into my vehicle. Do this is useless.

  38. JosephM

    Crap most of the time it goes off for no reason so nope !

  39. NLincon

    Awesome product! Master Autotec Terry did a phenomenal job on the installation and explanation on Compustar product.

  40. Jman

    Like the fact that you can start your car before hand. Plus you can leave your car on and armed when going for a quick in and out to a store … Nice

  41. A626

    Great alarm add on for more protection. Best Buy included installation

  42. KennethT

    Works on just needs to be closer then what it says on the boxes

  43. Xtremegreen

    My husband loves his new alarm. Has lots of great features.

  44. Andyvr2

    Bought this kit for my wifes new to her car. Was referred to a more qualified tech by my local store and was really satisfied with the install. Everything worked as it should and I/she has no qualms over this. It does everything we wanted and works better than the AutoPage brand.

  45. Darren

    The Security system works as advertised. I have no issues with it

  46. KeithR

    I have 4 of these as add-ons with the Compustar remote starts. They work well and give some security against vehicle break-ins. Very few false alarms.

  47. Spartanchicked

    Compustar had horrible customer service, think twice before purchasing

  48. CindyK

    Excellent product! It is a necessity to have for the cold weather!

  49. JulieR

    Recently installed. Northglenn did a great job. Works great so far, it’s new;) so not much use.. but I plan to test it out quite a bit. Online deal when I purchased, had me pick up started and ship alarm, so having to back to get it installed. Wish they could fix that glitch, but no biggie.

  50. Jestang

    Got it for my fox body mustang and it works great. Got at a good price and free installation
