Re: alarm

Almost any alarm. The Hornet line from DEI would work just for you. www.directed.com

You can always add power locks to your car so you could have keyless entry too.

Re: alarm

I have all manual everything and i have um.... made by Valet. Remote starter and alarm. Sensitive enough to where if anyone tries to even tap my rims it will go off and it is one of the most annoying alarms i have heard.

I've got manual everything too, but I'm converting to power. Just missing a couple parts. The alarm I'm putting in is made by Option Group and I have added accessories for it...Power window roll up modulator, trunk pop, and could add things like remote start etc. It all depends on what you want to do to your car.

Usually that is due to either it being a real cheap alarm or crappy install. My alarm only have falsed once on me from a severe storm but if you tap the tires, it goes off.

I've set someone's car alarm off with my exhaust at a restaurant before too. It went off when I turned my car on then again when I drove away. It's senseless to have an alarm that sensitive.

Re: alarm

Mine has falsed b4 when it was first installed and only in the winter after a long drive and the engine makes the weird tickin vibs and has set it off once or twice. But not anymore.... only systems set if off, and i had a deisel truck do it the other night when he got close to it... other wise it has saved me a few times while at work...
