    I've got a Viper Pager alarm - main unit with battery backup siren- electric window kit, immobiliser, I'll be adding in a motion sensor and a tilt sensor when I get it installed I think.

    Has the little pager alarm that shows you exactly whats going on

    i just got a cheaper hornet alarm, imobiliser, shock sensor, glass break sensor etc, cost me bout 350, hasnt come in 2 use yet thankfully, but i think it should do the job, well i no the imobiliser works, and the shock sensor works (was washing my car, as soon as the water hit the car on high pressure it set it off)

    I got a mongoose for mine... Cost me about $350 installed... Is quite a good alarm ... No bells or whistles, but just a simple yet effective alarm ...
    I spend too much money on my cars & bike
