T-Harness Included
I just ordered and spoke with the Geek Squad dude at my local BB in the auto install bay. He confirms that this comes with the T-Harness in the kit. Also, the separate email that comes from Geek Squad with the install code # said this explicitly at the top:

Thank you for your recent Remote Start Installation with THarness purchase (Order number: BBY01-XXXXXXXXXXXXXX. Follow the instructions below to schedule your in-store service.


What is the difference between this 4905s and 4900s?

https://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=120610945&postcount=156

Not sure if anybody else has answered you, so I will. Smilie The 4900 is the "basic" Compustar line. It includes the CM900 brain. Solid brain and really nothing basic about it. But the 4905 includes the DC3 brain. This is the next step up. Includes all that the CM900 does and more. Manual trans support, add-on alarm functionality if you want, plus more. Has the bypass module built in on that one. No Blade-AL needed with the DC3

Is this the lowest price seen for this or is it expected to drop more during BF?

The previous thread had lot of people complaining Best Buy required them to buy more stuff to get the install done.

I know nothing about cars.. so can any SDer confirm of this is compatible with a 2012 Honda Civic LX Automatic? If so, do I have to purchase anything else that's not included in this bundle?

Depends on your car how much extra ! . Some people like the. T Harness install because they don't have to splice into many of your wires!

It's worth the extra money for piece of mind for some people!

I have a frustrated look to the guy and he hooked me up for 1 cent...it was just a pack of wires you need cause this kit comes with no wires...mines also a 2007 old car so he said I needed the wires

I got this installed this last Sunday. I didn't had to pay anything during installation and it took 1.5 hours. EDIT: Oh my bad, it was the 4900.

The installer did and excellent and clean job and I wasn't expecting a Best Buy installer to know so much about this. The only thing is that I forgot to ask to add the defroster to the Aux, so I'll have to go again. I have to check if this will cost me extra.
