Directed Electronics Launches Viper Window Film

Advanced window tint, designed to enhance vehicle security and control cabin temperature, is an ideal add-on to Viper Security and Remote Start systems

VISTA, Calif., Jan. 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- CES Press Kit -- Directed Electronics today announced that its industry leading Viper vehicle security and remote start brand will expand into the window film category at select Viper retailers nationwide starting later this month.

The company has been researching window film technology for several years, and has identified the following innovations that it believes consumers will really value, in three unique product lines:

Viper Ultra Film - Specially designed film significantly reduces temperature in the vehicle with multiple shade and size options - an ideal add-on to Viper Remote Start systems

Viper Security Film - Specifically designed to deter content theft by strengthening the vehicle glass, Viper Security Film enjoys significant synergies with Viper Vehicle Security systems

Viper Ceramic Film - The most "high tech" of the Viper Window Films, the Viper Ceramic Film provides maximum UV and infrared heat rejection without significantly darkening the vehicle glass - another ideal add-on to Viper Remote Start systems

More Than Just Window Tint

Viper Window Film is a specially designed non-metallic film that doesn't impede the radio frequency signals (including cellular smartphone signals) that communicate with and operate Viper security and remote start systems in the vehicle - including Viper SmartStart.

Because all three Viper Window Film lines enhance security by strengthening the vehicle's glass, Directed Electronics is augmenting its popular one-year Guaranteed Protection Plan (GPP) which refunds Viper owners' insurance deductible up to $2,500 if their car is stolen with Viper installed and armed. The company now offers a one-year $5,000 GPP for consumers who have Viper Window Film and a Viper security system installed at the same time.

Directed Electronics, recently honored by Mobile Electronics Magazine as Manufacturer of the Year, is proud to offer an American-made window film of the highest quality, with a lifetime warranty. Following its official launch at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) it will be sold and installed at select retailers nationwide. For more information, please visit http://www.viper.com
