Agreed. Hidden fuel cutoff switch + hidden ignition cutoff switch.

An alarm with radar is good if you want it to give a warning chirp if someone gets too close but is not touching it.

About the only thing worthwhile is an ignition and/ or fuel cutoff.

Almost anything from DEI is good. The install is just as important as the alarm IMHO.

Which to get will depend upon what you desire, and if you install it yourself vs using something that your install shop likes.

Good luck.

I have a A1000 pump and had to run a new power line, but if you have a stock pump I would just try to find a wiring diagram and see where the power wire goes. Cut it off somewhere and add a switch somewhere out of the ordinary.

edit: not that I know if it makes any difference but I like the hidden fuel only as opposed to both fuel and ignition. That way if they try to start it it should run for like a minute or so then it will shut off and they might just think it needs a tune. If you have disconnected the ignition it won't even start and might piss em off and they might beat it up.

As for the GPS, that is incase they flatbed it

Agreed, DEI stuff is good quality. They make Viper and a few other brands. I had an older Viper 800 on my last car and it never gave me any problems.
