Re: does anyone have an aftermaket alarm in their G
I've got a CodeAlarm TW-1... works great, but hard to find. It's a pretty complicated install, as you'll need to run a tach unlike most auto-starters on the G. Good luck with your hunt,

I put a Viper 800esp alarm. hooked up two output to the door locks to roll windows up and down, and another output for the trunk release. it was pretty hard finding all the wires though. used wiring diagram but some was wrong, probably cause the car is new. had to look for my own wiring.

I was kind of wondering the same thing....
I have a Clifford Avantguard 4 sitting in my room, but am scared to even attempt install on this car.

My advice is to let the dealer do the installation. (I had them install an alarm, window tint and body moulldings) It may cost a little more, but it would be covered under the four year warranty.

I asked my contact at the dealership who they outsourced all the installs to... called him up directly and had it done outside the dealership. Cheaper, but still covered by the warranty b/c he was certified by them to do the install.

I have the Autopage RS-850lcd alarm/remote starter.
Installer said it was a bitch to install. Windows roll up with the fob, but to get them to roll down with the new fob would have been 80 bucks extra. The old fob can still roll them down though.

Re: does anyone have an aftermaket alarm in their G
i am interested in installing a Compustar alarm. they are the company that started this paging system craze. i think the product will do the job but i am worried about using an remote start on a 6M. if i park the car i want to leave it in gear so it is harder to steal (by towing away). if the car is in gear then can i still use the remote starter? also if anybody has any opinions on the Compustar product that would be welcome too. thanks.

Re: does anyone have an aftermaket alarm in their G
If you leave your car in gear and use an autostarter, you're gonna go through a l-o-t of garage doors. If you have a 6MT, leave it in N for the autostarter. A lot of installers refuse to put them on MTs simply because of the liability... it can be, and is done, but make sure you kick that habit!

Re: does anyone have an aftermaket alarm in their G
There are one or two remote starters specifically designed for a MT, where they will not start unless your car is in neutral. However, they won't work in conjunction with your alarm. So yeah, Im screwed if I remote start my car while its in gear. But I never put it in gear when parking at home or at work, which is really when I need the remote start.

Re: does anyone have an aftermaket alarm in their G
correct me if i am wrong but doesnt leavin the car in N make it a lot easier to steal? the jerks can just jack up the back end and tow your car away, right? i wud like to be wrong on this one. also there are times when u wanna leave it in gear, like on a big hill, incase the hand brake fails it wont go rollin. but i guess u just hafta be careful.

Correct me if I'm wrong but if the jerks jack up the back end, it will not matter if the car is in neutral or not. The rear wheels will not be on the ground...LOL
