Due to vandalism, I got a DEI Viper alarm, model 791XV. Directed Electronics is one of the biggest names in vehicle security. They manufacture Python, Viper, Clifford, Wasp, and a host of other systems. The Viper 791XV is the flagship two way remote start and security system. It's the same alarm my brother has in his truck. We have the modules for rolling up/down my windows, etc, that I also want to wire in, as well as another horn for the alarm.
Now my car is equipped with shock sensors, glass break sensors, a sensor for each door, hood, trunk, and gas door. It senses changes in level in case someone were to attempt stealing the wheels. I also installed a starter kill relay and two PIAA sirens. The car is also equipped with remote start, as well as shutting the car off. The remotes range runs for a half mile as to warn if your vehicle is being tampered with. The remote vibrates, lights up, and chimes.
Even if someone were to actually have the keys to my car, they're not getting anywhere. The alarm is automatically tripped as soon as that key is inserted. The starter is automatically killed when the vehicle is armed, as well as the steering locked. There is also a tow sensor if someone actually attempts to tow my car.
Coupled with this, I have 4 night vision security cameras that run 24/7. They record every single car that enters the street, as well as anyone coming from the park area. It also records every single movement in front of the house, including our cars. In the darkness of night, they record clear as day. They're hardwired to a 500GB receiver with power backup in case of power outtage, capable of running for hours on end, and network broadcast to the internet so I can watch over the house, any time, any where. The receiver holds 2 months straight of HD video from all four cameras.
Here's a basic diagram of the remote:
Here is a video I made right after the Alarm was installed. The car has gone through a lot of changes since, yet the alarm system is still installed and running.
