Hey. I have been needing an alarm ever since I got my DA. Even though car theif isn’t that high where I live, I just need one just in case. I think that a car alarm will do it for me, and I think it’s enough security in my area. I just need one sensitive enough to the touch. I don’t know much about alarms, so my question is, what should I be looking into when deciding on which car alarm to buy. Name your alarm and how much you got it for. Thanks
any alarm will do if you just want a deterrent… if you want a really lame-o one… there are wireless ones from like walmart for like 50 bucks (I bought one, but be careful if you have any vans around you and they slam the door… it will go off haha)… pretty much any alarm would do if you want it to tell you exactlly where it was touched etc… they are really easy to install as well
It is all about what you want to add on to it and the warranty. I got compu-star for the fact I can later on down the road have a system similiar to Low-Jack add to it and then track it via GPS on a laptop. Also Compu-star has a warranty on their rmotes to were even if you drop it in a toilet I can take it back to the install place they will program a new one and hand it to me. Mine has proximity, knock, hidden back up battery, hood pin, trunk pin, door pins, remote start. Thought about tilt sensor too, but will wait on that. There are so many little add on things you can get on their system.
