I got my 90 hatch a couple months ago, I've enjoyed it a lot since then. I'll have a b16 dropped in it within a couple weeks and I've got lots of plans as far as putting work into the car.

Before I drop all this money into it, though, I need to put an alarm on the car. I don't want remote entry or anything, I just want to ensure that the car (or anything inside it/under the hood) isn't gonna get stolen. Anyone have any recommendations, price estimates, etc?

 

don't bother. alarms are annoying and just bother you and everybody near the car. if someone wants it they are going to take it with or without an alarm

 

... Thanks man. That's very helpful.

 

u dont need an expensive alarm. Just get your basic alarm and full coverage. If ur willing to spend a little more, get lojack or some kind of tracking system. It'll also lower your premium (at least it should).

 

Is there a brand I should ask for? What should I be looking to pay for the basic alarm including install?

 

i have a viper in my car, but there are some better ones out there,
my roommate has a clifford in his nsx

 

How much did you pay for the alarm and install?

 

I got a good viper system from bestbuy for $200 and they do free install

 

i got my viper for free from a buddy of mine that had it in his s-10 and got a different car and wanted his system taken out, so he let me have the alarm for pulling out his system.
my roomate paid 350 for his clifford.
we went to ultimate electronics on sunday and they had several alarms there, just go to your local stero shop and see what alarms they offer.

 

i got a python alarm that my buddy gave me for my grad gift...his uncle works at honda and hooked it up...gave me a sensor for the hood, hatch and gave me a killswitch...better than the orginial wack alarm i had before...but if not i agree with the others and get a basic alarm that covers everything
