    im looking for one too right now i think im going with a viper remote start cause it tells you up to a mile if your alarm is going off. at work the other day my friends truck got broken into but was able to stop them cause the remote told him it was going off. but its around 700 installed

    ive heard that the part about it telling you the alarm is going off is good, but i garuentee that you will almost never use the remote start especialy if you live in the south

    RIP to my 08 Prerunner DC
    I have a Viper 1002. Great alarm, depending on how sensative you make it a small tap will set it off. I got it like 1/2 price off Amazon. and it was like 150 to install. The thing has pretty good range too.

    You can't change the sensitivity yourself? I know nothing about car alarms.
