Just got a bulldog remote starter, what else do I need?
I picked one up from Walmart for a cool $30. I believe there is another module that I need to bypass my vats. Does anyone know where I can get it? Also any opinions on whether or not to install it. My mechanic already told me that its crap. (For 30 bucks I could not resist).

You can do the installation yourself if you're patient and good with electrical circuits. You'll have some disassembly and routing of wires to do; this is not an easy installation by any means. (This is the only product I've ever seen listed in the J.C. Whitney catalog that comes with a warning about how tough it is to install.)
Do a search of this site with the search pattern "Dashboard AND Diary AND Chapter" for my series of postings on how to install the system on the Bonneville.
Wait, never mind, here are the links; it'* about time I got them organized:
Chapter 1: http://www.bonnevilleclub.com/forum/...pic.php?t=3269
Chapter 2: http://www.bonnevilleclub.com/forum/...pic.php?t=3318
Chapter 3: http://www.bonnevilleclub.com/forum/...pic.php?t=3441
Chapter 4: http://www.bonnevilleclub.com/forum/...pic.php?t=3559
Chapter 5: http://www.bonnevilleclub.com/forum/...pic.php?t=3849
Chapter 6: It starts! http://www.bonnevilleclub.com/forum/...pic.php?t=3893
Note that it doesn't take all six chapters to install the thing; I also rebuilt the gauge cluster and added an LED theft deterrent at the same time, so you may be able to skim through the first couple of posts above pretty quickly before we get into the meat of the thing.
