I pick up my new car this weekend, so now time to shop for the alarm officially.

What do you guys think about buying/installing from Future Shop [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

Furley I'm lookin for an alarm that'll do both I suppose. Or in other words to sum it all up into a nice little box. Stop people from stealing my stereo, car and anything in the car. And I'm looking for an alarm that has the animated remotes.

I've been very happy with my compustar 2way fm alarm/start combo. Works from ridiculously far away....i like it.

Cost me umm, well ranged from 450 - 800 installed with locks and all I paid about 650 for hte place that i chose. Luckily no one's tried to break into my vehicle with this alarm, as of yet anywho.

My suggestion would be the Viper 5000 then.
I'm aware of this however it reduces the risk and makes some people feel safter that their gear is a bit safer when its better than having nothing at all you know?

I would only have the install of my alarm if I was comfortable with the staff at that store. My Preference is Viper,, 128 Screaming DB's

Yeah thats what I'm worried about with any other store, I trust the people at Sound Concepts because I know them and I know their work.

But here's the kicker I'm not installing ANY piece of audio into my car until I have an alarm. So say when I goto get an alarm anywhere, its just a stock system. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

don't know if you can get a copy of the apr/may issue of PAS mag, but they had an extensive review on alarms, don't have one myself, but after reading the review, i'm thinking i might get one and i kinda know what feature i want.


*cough*...i mean i already have a REALLY good alarm - it's like a impermeable fortress....i just want to upgrade it...*cough*
