I'm thinking of getting one for my wife's car, an 85 Volvo. I'm fairly good at fixing and maintaining the car, but don't want to be tearing out the dashboard and rewiring the ignition switch etc to install a remote starter if that's what it takes... The car does not have electric door locks or truck lock. I just want to be able to start the car. Is this a big deal to wire? Is it done under the hood vs inside the car? Is it a major job to wire it in? Any info appreciated. Thanks!

Appreciate the help. Will ck out the Bulldogs.
Someone else said they're pretty easy to install. I disagree.
I spent all day putting the Ford-branded unit into my full-size '03 Ford van. It works as advertised but it is a pain to put in.
