Well I got my alarm today, and well a quick note for everyone on refurbished items...Well some connectors are missing, there are no decals, ( i dont really care) no manuals or instructions (which they say are available at directed.com, but they are not. Also the controller and the brain have "B" inscribed on them, Im guessing someone bought this, installed it, inscribed it and returned it, it may be cosmetic, but who knows how much this was used, and I really dont want a B carved into my stuff.

hence the Refurbished part. The b etched into the units was probably done by Viper themselves as it is now classified as "B" stock and cannot be returned to a store or to viper for credit or full worth. Who really cares though since the only person that would ever see that is the installer or the thief who is ripping it out.

yea otherwise you could go to the store, buy a new one, put your refurb in the box and return it, keeping the new one. Its their way of letting shops and vendors know whats up.

B is for BAD. We used to do that at Circuit City so we would know which unit was which when we reinstalled them. And Viper wanted it done so that they could know at a glance.
If you're so damned worried about your remote just go buy a remote and reprogram it to your brain. Not that hard dude.

WEll we marked them and sent them back to DEI. I'm sure they fixed it then sold it to a refurbished reseller. You won't get a warranty on it though
