Well I hit a deer and insurance totaled my 08. Just bought an 11. On my 08 I have a Kenwood stereo and viper remote start, I am really hoping everything is plug and play in moving those to the 2011?

The 2011 may already have factory remote start! As for the radio , it depends on if the car has the same sound system. Look for a subwoofer in the back on the driver’s side

2011 had optional remote start, check in the DIC or the hood switch. The Viper should install the same way.

Yeah, no subwoofer on the 2011, does that mean the wiring harness wont match up?
