Eric,

I've been installing them left & right. You'll need an IBM computer with touchscreen and a full smart siren SM system.

Are you looking for a kit?

sean,

i was looking into getting one for my vision system myself, still dont have it all installed in my car yet, waiting for the ok from the chief to come down the chain,

our systems we use a touch screen laptop, have toshiba's and dells for the most part right now in the area thos are hooked up to a VRM. we do everything by computer for the most part, try to have as little radio traffic as possible due to it being so busy around here.
