    Security Thoughts on trucks other than TRX

    That’s fine to attempt to defeat it, but again you miss the point. If it’s concealed properly, the extra time it takes to try to get around it will allow the vehicle owner to be alerted of the attempted theft. At the end of the day everything is just a deterrent. If someone wants it bad enough...

    Security Thoughts on trucks other than TRX

    Well that’s all depending on who installs it. I guarantee you with the way I install the systems, you’re not bypassing it before the owner knows you’re trying. I’ve had several that they attempted by breaking the window like usual, and that was as far as they got. Owners just had to replace...

    Security Thoughts on trucks other than TRX

    The IGLA isn’t necessary if you utilize the PTS disable that Compustar offers. I have installed a ton of T13/R5 units and not one of them has been stolen. None of them had the IGLA units, not to say they aren’t great systems, but none of my clients have needed any extra protection.

    water leak

    Had to have the back window replaced. It was a joke of a process, but it finally got done last week. I was able to get it covered so I didn’t have to pay anything out of pocket, but of course we haven’t had any rain since I picked it up. So now I just have to wait and see.

    Security Thoughts on trucks other than TRX

    These vehicles can be stolen in about 60-90 seconds. Doesn’t matter where it’s parked, people are having them taken from their driveway right in front of their house while they are inside. The car is gone before you even know they were there. Don’t believe just because you have a transponder...

    Security Thoughts on trucks other than TRX

    I have an alarm on my truck that disables the PTS switch, and it also has a tilt/glass sensor. So if someone tries to tow it, the alarm will go off and report to my phone instantly. I have installed a bunch of them in various Hellcats/SRTs, and I’ve even had several clients whose vehicles were...

    water leak

    I have been having the same issue. I decided to remove my seats and the cab wall panel so I could see where water was coming from. I have 2 cracks in my window frame and water runs in and drips from that. I did however see water entering from a seam in the cab wall. In the attached picture you...

    Ram got stolen - need advice

    Sorry to hear that happened to you. I have installed dozens of Compustar alarm systems in Hellcats and SRTs and TRXs because of all the theft. The system I use disables the push to start when the system is armed or after a period of inactivity. Several of the vehicles I did, thieves attempted to...

    Exhaust thread!

    I did the Corsa kit with the resonator delete, sounds great. Initial start up and idle sounds awesome, but not obnoxious. My neighbors have even said they know when I’m going to work in the morning but it’s not ridiculously loud, they’re not complaining. Absolutely zero drone when cruising...

    Added compustar DC3 remote start question

    Yes, it is an aftermarket condition. I have a factory remote start as well, and it requires pushing the start button to do takeover. Aftermarket requires the door to be closed and just pressing the brake, not the PTS button.

    Added compustar DC3 remote start question

    Yes, this is totally normal. I install Compustar systems, and I have one on my truck as well, the radio powering down for a second is nothing to worry about. Also, make sure you close your door before pressing the brake. Truck will shut down if the door is open.

    BED STEP FOR SIDE OF TRUCK BED

    Check out Amp-Research, they make the exact product you are looking for. They have a deployable bed step that mounts near the cab and can be configured for either side, so you can buy just one, or get one for each side.

    2019 Ram Laramie will not start and key fob will not lock / unlock doors

    No problem, sorry you had to deal with the unfortunate results of a poor installation. Hopefully whatever comes of it, the shop will make it right for you.

    2019 Ram Laramie will not start and key fob will not lock / unlock doors

    Yes, I’m aware of that fact. He has the right to choose which place he wants to use. Clearly you can’t walk into a place that doesn’t install interlocks and ask them to do that. They wouldn’t have the equipment to do the job. However, around my area, there are several different types of shops...
