Re: Question?

you will be spending close to 400 dollars...

my suggestion is get The CLUB and bring your valuables into the house. get a cd player with detachable face.

yeah it is a pain in the ass the first couple times, but once you get the hang of it it saves you lots of money. plus since you now know how to do it you can charge your buddies to wire the shit they need wired.

Re: Question?

yes viper alarm systems IMO are the best money can buy. a little expensive but alot less cheaper than having to replace stereo equipment, windows, other shit you have in your ride or even your car.

dont forget to take out those speakers, amp, new wheels, and the box or reeses pieces from your console.... ghetto kidlets spare nothing!

wiring an alarm really isnt that difficult, just time consuming if you havent played with wires... or your car before.
