True I don't like Best Buy here in Austin TX. They told me just to install the alarm system would be $600 :/ Then after doing some research and asking around I ended up going with a window tint dealer instead. I'll be honest the setup I have is a little over $1,000 (most in labor fees) but it's back up by my local viper dealers life time warranty (covers all the DEI equipment on my balt). I think it's worth the investment and time.
As far as the whole put your car in 1st then park just in case the brakes go out, I think it's worth the risk. I mean it's obvious that if your on a deep incline hill parking you should use 1st first gear then e-brake not worry about putting the vehicle in remote start mode but in most leveled out parking lots or driveways it's not too much of a worry just my two cents

The system in mine (compustar) will not start if the car is in gear and the clutch bypass isn't a nightmare like yours because the remote starter is designed to work on a manual. If you remote start it and it's in gear it will automatically kill the crank so car doesn't take off lol plus IMHO it's a way better system remotes aren't cheap looking and feeling like all the others

And if you paid over $1k for a remote starter you got robbed lol! Alarm/remote start at my shop installed would run you about 485 after tax and that's the same system I've got with lifetime warranty on brain and install

But if your referring as only the alarm system itself for $1K yes that is getting robbed lol.
