Default Alarm/Security System for RSX?

What do you have to protect your car from theft? Many of my friends have gotten their older generation hondas broken into and stolen, and I was wondering if our cars are easy to steal as well.

I think RSX's are not a common theft vehicle because our parts are not as easly swappable to other cheaper cars. Factory immobolizer deters rookie thieves. IF you must have an alarm always go for the high end stuff and don't skimp out on the install. You can even DIY and make the alarm harder for theives to shut off and over ride.

i've only known one dude who has had his RSX stolen, and it was only because the idiot left the keys in the car.

with the immobilizer, basically a flat bed/tow truck is needed to take the car
