Okay.. so I'm about to open a can of worms...
I've searched the forums, and I've seen as many possible answers to similar questions as people who have asked...
Now I'll ask again.. sort of...
What is a good aftermarket alarm? Below are the list of features I'd like, in order of priority. Keep in mind that I'm married, so my wife guards the checkbook...
At least as functional as the factory alarm (keyless entry, alarm on entry without disarm, etc.)
Alarm sounds if sedan trunk is opened without disarming (sad that the factory alarm doesn't sound on trunk open!)
Shock sensor (programmable)
Battery backup
Good range (factory keyless has horrid range IMO)
two-way (any range beyond line of sight requires knowing that the command worked.)
starter (auto trans)
tilt sensor (you'd think that the shock sensor would notice being yanked on a flatbed.. but...)
trunk "popper"
auto windows up on arming. (actually, closing the moonroof is more important.. one of these days I'm going to forget to close that thing and it's going to rain...)
