alarm for 65 help please

I personally like the alarms made by DEI, but so long as you buy a good brand name, you should be fine.

Almost any decent quality alarm will have circuitry for trunk and hood. But if they don't, you should be able to tie them into the circuit for the doors. For my alarm I tied the hood and trunk together into the same circuit. The alarm does not know which was opened when it goes off.

The hardest part about trunk and hood is that you never had a factory switch (for lights etc), so you'll have to install your own hood and trunk pin switch.

Features to look for:
1) Remote distance. I like an alarm with lots of range.
2) Controls for power windows and locks incase you ever want to install in future and would like alarm to control. (my alarm locks the doors and rolls up the windows when armed).

Alot of alarms nowadays have paging features.. which would be neat if they had any range. But still good for when your alarm goes off at night and you'd normally sleep through it. Something else you might want to look into.

DEI owns viper.. also owns Clifford. Good alarms IMO.

Power windows were a bit of work, but not all that bad. Well, at least for my 70. The actual wiring took more time than the rest of the installation. If you buy power windows I DEFINATELY reccomend buying a switch kit which comes with wiring. It would have taken me alot longer without it.

Remote start on a carbed car is a PITA. There are some fancy setups that have a solenoid to pump the gas a couple of times, etc.. but expensive and not very reliable. Personally I don't drive my mustang in the winter, so see little use for remote start.

have to have a hood lock bud...even it your alarm has sensitivy buzzers you can still go and be easy with em and pop the hood and cut the battery cable...dont go cheap when it comes to keepin your baby safe

stock looking coupe? maybe a cowl hood or one with a functional scoop..gives it more of a mean look then regular hood
