Alarms these days don't do much for the security of your car. Think about it, you're inside a mall, your alarm goes off so who do you think is going to take a second look and see who's breaking into your car. No one is going to give a rats ass. Sure someone will glance at the thieve but everyone will assume that person is the owner and just having trouble with the alarm. That's how I think of it when I hear an alarm goe off. I NEVER think a thief is breaking into someones car, right ...unless the alarm goes off in your driveway then you'd care.

How often do you see situation where you see a good samaritan say to person who is inside a car that has the alarm set off, "Hey you, is that your car? If not I will call the police?" Hah hah what a joke, you'll never or rarely see that happening.

Funny that I'm talking about alarm as I got mine installed today. I got the Avital, which is from DEI a well. I kinda regret getting it now as I found out after that a starter kill could be custom installed without the alarm. That's the main reason I got the alarm installed. Didn't want someone driving off with my car.

Really, alarms are almost useless cause if someone wanted to steal something in your car, they'd do it anyways by setting it off whether they can disable it or not. So screw the alarm and just install a starter kill (or have someone do it) and remove your faceplate. Alarms are really only good when are in vicinity of your car to be able to hear it go off say your own driveway.
