How to make my car alarm better

[Bumpin Expo]

So far I have 5 sirens (4 outside, 1 inside) and thats it. I also have the LCD 2 way viper alarm. How else could I make it better? Hood lock, anything else

I dont think theres too much more you can have really.. if they really want somethign they will get it, but 5 sirens and 2 way alarm is a lot

prox sensor, glass sensor, gps location and 24-7 monitoring...
I mean there is tons of shit you can add to your alarm but making sure it is installed properly is the most important.

First make sure your led is mounted so you can see it through all the windows...add more if you need too.. a viper will hold four with out a relay... despite opinion that is a theft deterrent...

2nd Where you mount the brain is very important... if you can reach it without having to remove your whole dash then it is easy for a theif to get to it. (90% of all alarms are installed on the driverside behind the dash or kick panel... get creative in your location)

Also install a fuse onto the power side of all your horns... 5amp should do the trick(they are running off a relay right?)
Could do this for all the paking lights too = more safety

For inside use look for piezo revenge siren... they will make you sick if you spend too much time near it...and it hurt like hell to hear it
For outside get an air horn loud as hell

Make sure you hide the starter kill (99% off all S/K are in plain sight and easy to find)

My view is the thief is gonna get so frustrated that he can't start it or shut it up he will leave it alone, And that is how I install alarms.

now we're talking subsonic

First off yes I do have a piezo on the inside. I have 4 horns all around the truck on the outside and 1 pieze inside

About the prox. sensor, what exactly is that? I have the viper 690 xv and it came only with a sensor that will detect if your bump the car or hit the car hard rite? Will it detect glass breaks?


As for where the brain is mounted, its a bitch to get to. One time I had to get to it and it took a good 20 mins to get all the shit out of the way to access it.

I dont get why I would have to hook 5 amp fuses to all my horns? And yes, they are all on relays.

As for my LED's, I just have one green one in the stock location, I was thinking of install another on the passanger side in the same spot.

hook up a switch to a relay that will cut off fuel pump power, and hide the switch in a good place, that way they won't be able to start the car

[alainmower]

hire a body guard to watch after it while the car is out of your sight.

A proximity sensor is a radar that scans for a detect changes in mass..like a human hand... other things can set them off birds, leaves, ect. if not installed properly....

A glass sensor will detect glass breakage... it is a sound discriminator... police sirens will set this one off

pm me for an answer to this
