So what alarms should i look for and what one should i stay away from? My tint shop sells and installs them and they have a little dicount on a Python system. Any opinions on it? I like the two way systems becuase of their remotes.
The really sad part of what goes on in todays market, is that if someone wants YOUR car, it's going to be stolen with or without ANY ALARM SYSTEM. A $25.00 flashing strobe light on the dash(NO alarm really installed)will scare off most thieves IF they think it's attached to an alarm system. You have a computer chip built into your key that disables the fuel and starting system from the factory, so putting in an aftermarket unit will not do much except make noise which most professionals can knock off in a few seconds.
