Berto Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 I am in the market for a car alarm and i am having trouble finding good reviews comparing different systems. I am not trying to spend $400+ I just want a good alarm. What should I be looking at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaSSon Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 car alarms are gay, no one pays attention to a screaming car anymore. Save your money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MackDaddy43 Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 with the viper your remote will beep too. Its got like a 1+ mile range or something. We had it on the escalade and it worked really well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alibies Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 anything dei is good, but really an alarm is only as good as the install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shotgun Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 Make sure you get a 12volt back up and starter kill switch. The two most valuable things in any alarm... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwashmycar Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 Back when I was into systems and whatnot, Clifford made a very nice unit... DEI (Directed Electronics), was always a good starting point. quick google, maybe somthing along these lines???... http://www.clifford.com/Products/Product.aspx?ProductID=705 cant go wrong with a nice gun rack though... Maybe a nice sign that simply says "I will shoot you in the fucking face" *shrug* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Cranium Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 compustar 2way ftw. tom I had a Compustar on my S10 and loved it. I've been debating on getting one installed on my Impala. I was talking to Gearhead Rob a while back and it sounds like the units he carries and installs are pretty good too. Sorry, don't remember what they are, but if you PM him he can give you the details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a spinoff of DEI. I had a lot of falses with multiple Vipers, but never any with anything DEI or CrimeStopper. All systems were professionally installed, too.
