I dont have an ss/sc (because it shouldnt matter what model) and I dont have an alarm. Its actually pretty complicated to steal any late model GM due to the PassKey systems they use.


So I like my stock "alarm"

an alarm is different then anti-theft system like passkey. passkey doesnt allow the car to be started unless it see the chip or resistances (depending on which passkey you are talking about 1,2or3). A stock alarm goes off if a door is open. All cobalts have passkey but not all cobalt have factory alarms. also aftermark alarms gives you more defensive options like shock senors or twoway. most common way cars are broken into is breaking the window. with an aftermarket alarm with a shock senor will go off as a factory alarm will not until the door is open allowing anybody to reach in and steal whatever.... just something to think about....

very well said cadet. i think to sum up what cadet said, its not actually the car what people want, its the stuff inside and that stock alarm will do nothing. i got the viper 690xv pager system, soon will be installed unless someone wants to buy it.

I installed a 2 way pager alarm in my integra but i was wondering how much is it to get it installed professionally? Like alarm and install price together from the cheapest to most expensive.

I want to see pics when you are done.

I have something known as AutoPage... basically the same as a Viper 2way system only alot cheaper and does a damn good job. I can adjust sensitivity and add things such as a tilt sensor so I know if anyone tries to take my precious rims... also I have sensors on the trunk and I could add them to the hood if I wanted to. And if you can see clearly enough through my tint to see the HU then you can try to get it but anything else you have to work extra hard for. Even the rims. I've been robbed before so I spent weeks devising any theft deterent skeems I could think of. To really be worth taking something off or out of my car would require a tow truck. Good luck hooking it up before I get out there, I sleep with the alarm by my ear and walk with it around my neck. The range isn't that bad.

I have the Compustar Pro FM900 on my G5. It is a 2 way, 3000ft range starter/alarm. Basically has every option you would want, even internal temperature display on the remote.

I have a friend with one of those... I wanted one of those too but I settled for less.

i am running the viper 5000 2 way, and the viper 210v satellite tracking system. and i am workin on a custom dvr with 3 hidden cameras that will record 24 hours a day. so if some little bastard breaks in.. i will know where to find him, and then he will meet my baseball bat...

I have the stock alarm.

Trust me, I know how it works.

The thing is on 90% of these cars on the site, there ain't **** worth stealing inside.

And something to think about is when a car alarm goes off most people think one of two things

1)Turn that ******* annoying thing off
2)Owner must have locked himself out and is trying to get back in

I've seen this on the news and Cops, its true too.

turbotaylor

Good stuff. can you post pics when you get the cameras working. I was thinking of doing that.

djcasper_bpm

no problem. i may market this system for custom alarms. in any mode of transport... wont be finished till this summer. pics for sure....

Come out to Las Vegas and say that. Not to harp on you man, but people out here would smash out your window for a pack of smokes or some loose change. No alarm may be good for where you live, but not everywhere else. I have a Viper 5000 2-way with a radar sensor. I could care less about the loose change, I just don't want to pay for a window. I could give two ***** what other people think about my alarm going off, just the guy that is going to be on the end of the barrel of my Sig 9mm when I catch them.

intense_SS

i have an alarm that if you get too close to it my car ***** on the person closest to it and shoots flames out the exhaust on them!!!! flamming ***** ftw!!!

turbotaylor

haha I want that alarm where did you get it and how much lol
