Ok well as I am sure most of you know the factory alarm on our cars is pretty much worthless. You can lock it and open it without the key and it doesnt set off the alarm or anything. Anyways I was wondering if anyone had an aftermarket alarm that works pretty well but that you are able to use the factory remote with. I want to keep my factory remote because I like the pony on it and well my goal is to keep this Mustang all mustang. I am even going to have some keys made at ford with the ford logo's on it. Anyways, your help as usual is greatly appreciated on helping me find an aftermarket alarm that works with our factory remotes.

The most you'll get by using the factory remote is a very cheap alarm/ remote start. Crappy range and operation. Your best bet is by using an aftermarket alarm with remote. You'l get better range. I have a viper 5000 2way alarm to install on mine.

If you don't car about range, it can be done.

Here's one that i've heard good things about. Viper 330V Plus all viper stuff comes with a lifetime warranty.
