What alarm to get?

Okay, ever since I got my Camry i've been worried that it might get stolen... Camrys are one of the most sttolen cars in America, that's undeniable. I have decided to put an alarm and possibly kill switch in there to make sure I can keep my car until I want to get rid of it.

Is there any particular brand that is good? I've never shopped for an alarm of any kind before. I've seen many many cars come into the auto center I work at with alarms, and most of them are annoyingly sensetive. I don't want something that's going to drain the battery for 15 minutes making silly noises every time the wind blows the wrong way.

Also around here basically nobody pays any attention to alarms anyway so that's why i'm planning on putting the killswitch in there too. How hard are these to install anyway?

Thanks!

Alarm

There is a company (blanking out on name) which advertises in the back of car magazines that has an "undefeatable" alarm. Basically you pull out this pin device which does not allow the car to start under any circumstance without it being placed back in. Jon.

wait a few more weeks and get the upgraded version of the viper 791xv, itll now come with responder sst technology instead of responder technology, which means up to a 1 mile range.

price will probably be significantly higher than the model out now though which you can pick up for less than $200.
