The crimestopper 865RKE is a keyless entry ONLY. No alarm.
Directed Electronics, who makes Viper, Python, Clifford etc. makes a simple alarm with keyless entry and then there are expansion pieces which are decently cheap in which you can add on to the alarm. I have a pretty old Viper 300 ESP (not in production ne more) which is the simple alarm, but then I have the 508D addition which creates a "radar" field around the car, and around the inside of the car. This provides a chirp or alarm to people who get to close, or people who stick their hand in my sunroof without touching the car. Each field is adjustable. What I would recommend, is the simple Viper 350HV with the addition of the 508D so that you can feel safter leaving your top down. There is also an expansion piece for a trunk popper if you so wish. Browse www.directed.com for more information and see what other stuff can be added to a simple alarm. -------------------- |

[right][snapback]258016[/snapback][/right] Do ebay for your alarm and dei accessories. For example, a dealer will charge you 150 for the radar(proximity) and you can buy one for 40 new on ebay. you cant go wrong with the viper family, any you can expand them with a channel expander. |

Yeah Ebay is your friend. I've seen online stores want $30-80 for that expansion piece. I have the proximity piece and I also have the window roll up piece, which automatically rolls up your windows when you activate the alarm. Theres also one that you can have your windows go down also.
