How many people have an aftermarket alarm on their cars? I just feel more safer having an alarm system to cover my rims at least. If you have an alarm, what brand and options do you have on it?

 

clifford matrix, absolutely love it, just got it installed last week, just keyless entry/security... when i tap on the window it chirps at me to warn me if i bang fist too hard on window or shake car it goes off, i feel so much safer with it

 

I have the Clifford also. Gotta love that remote start. It gets hot in H-Town.

 

the viper is not that bad

 

what are these running-$- installed?

 

i had a viper 650xv on my camry that i had a while back. i liked the extra sensitive shock sensor. viper hasn't failed me yet, and the range on that thing was excellent. so much so that for my new tl, i just recently (just today actually) bought the viper 5701 which is a two-way remote system. so if someone's messing with your car, and you're in the area, it pages you on your remote. the one i got has the very slim remote w/battery that lasts 6 months. which is alot better than most two-way pager remotes.

i lost my wallet that had my spare key in it, that's why im worried and bought myself this alarm.

good thing: it has 4 aux functions for what ever you want and can be programmed to operate two cars

better thing: has a cabin temperature sensor so after you remote start the car, you can check if it's cool in the car be4 you jump out into the sun.

best thing: has a silent arm feature that if you turn it on, it makes the alarm on the car silent, but pages you. so you can come out running yourself with a bat be4 he even realizes that he's getting your attention. lol. jk

 

oh and wish me luck! i'm planning on installing the alarm system myself =X

 

yeah.. how much are they running with the kit w/having it installed?... im thinking about gettin remote start/security with the works end of this month..

 

well bestbuy got the viper for about 500 which is way to much a local shop will have them for like 200 to 300 installed it depends where u take it .....

 

sweet, thanks for all the replies. yeah I had a clifford on my previous car and would probably get that for this car as well. I like the tilt sensors so if your car is tilted, the alarm will go off. I just put new racing harts on my TL and would like them to stay on there.
