In NYC alarms won't do much b/c nobody really pays attention to them so for me a 2 way system. Any economical suggestions

that's what the RS3 does..it has a range of almost 1/4 of a mile in clear view. i used to love playing around with them when i installed them. alarms make a difference!!! if a person really wants the car, he or she can tow it if they wanted to. a PROPERLY installed alarm will do its job, which is to delay car thieves from taking the car and to inform others of intrusion.
RS3 at best buy go for around 450-500installed if its an auto. i'd say buy a backup battery and an extra siren.
if calling to confirm prices, ask:
1.)do you tape or twist the wires (tape = :goodjob: )
2.) how long is it going to take
3.) how many have you installed
4.) where are you goign to hide the brain
5.) how do you mount the brain
6.) do you use t-tap, butt connectors, or solder (solder = good)
7.) ask if you can check out some of his or other installers work
8.) what's included
another thing you can add is an ignition kill switch independent of the alarm, which any retail store WILL NOT install cause it's illegal.
btw, WILL, IM me or call me if you have questions..i'm always willing to help
