dont get an alarm. they dont do ****. if you do get an alarm, just get it so it goes off if someone shatters the windows and invest in a hidden kill switch! then get a hidden secondary system for the alarm.

peace

I have a Directed Viper 2-way paging system w/ keyless entry. In addition I also have a hidden switch that keeps the MicroTech from powering on.

very unhelpful.
get a 2way pager alarm. get a good bang for the buck 2way at http://asianwolf.com

With that, it will alart you when teh alarm goes of, so you can run out to it.

kill switches are a plus. A quick release steering wheel is a plus... i doubt your average "OoOo i want his rims for my honda" thief that hunts for cars probably wouldnt be able to get your car if they dont know it.

Of couse if someone wants to steal your car they can get it no mater what, but that just means they will have to take their time and do their homework..

I'm also really interested. I've pretty much decided on the actual alarm to get, but does anyone have any recommendations for installing power door locks? I called up Mazda and all they have is the passenger door power lock assembly (as it seems that's how they all came), and it's $390, which doesn't help with keyless entry anyways.

I use a kill switch removeable "chip/plug" that connects to the fuel pump. Since I'm carbed, they may think they're away clean...till the bowl runs dry...about a block and a half away
