Car alarm with camer???!!!

Ok so im looking to add some car audio and a screen with a pc to my car. I figure that I should probably get a decent car alarm to go with it. I ran across this alarm with a camera that takes pictures if someone breaks into the car and send it to the remote in full color! I get hooked on cool looking gadgets easily so I wanna make sure this is a good system and Im not wasting my money. Any info or reviews would be helpful!!!

well you may catch a novice theft but anyone who would know what the he'll they were doing would probably catch onto the camera. It has to be visible to take a descent picture. You also need to take into consideration any tint on your windows, and there's more than one way to enter our car. IMO I'd say not a good investment

I just have the factory. I don't live in a high crime area so I'm going to stay with what I have. I've heard good about Viper alarm systems.....
