i have a crimeguard 745i from crutchfield for ~$200. its a great alarm IMHO. it has 5 zones i think, about 20 different programmable features, auto locking system, and an automatic kill switch with the alarm armed. i like it im sure install would be a pretty penny tho, no matter what alarm you decide on.

i'll probably do the install on my own, so no need to worry about labor costs.

Just becareful on the install. I had one installed on a F-150 and the alarm was wired wrong. and burned up the truck. It took forever to get the claim taken care of. I now only use very good places with warranties.

what he said. when you get the alarm, i think it has about 700 wires......no, 800. seriously tho, there is A LOT of wiring and wire running to do. not to mention cuttinh holes everywhere to run the wires
