Re: Alarms Advice for a 3rd Gen C10
Viper, Python, and Clifford are all owned/manufactured by Directed Electronics. I've used a few of them in the past and always been pretty happy.
The wiring can seem overwhelming, but just get out some paper before hand and read through the instructions and try to match the wire from the alarm to where it's going on your truck on the sheet of paper. If you get that all figured out well, you'll have no trouble installing it using your sheet of paper as your installation manual. For the most part in just getting keyless, it's power, ground, lock +, lock -, and door input (+ or -). Then you can start adding extras, horn/siren, parking lights, ignition cutoff, dome light and any additional alarm sensors you want to add. Don't forget the hood switch as well.
All in all, it's fairly easy to do, just be patient, solder all the wiring if you can, and be sure to double check all connections and wiring as you go.
