Default Alarm brands

Guys I was wondering if you knew of any brands that are good for car alarms.

I want to get one for my car but I have no idea where to start. Personal experiences on this one will help a lot.

I want something good but not really expensive.

Thanks!

If you have a flashing red light on the door you do. You also have a motion sensor in the cabin that will set it off. It down in the ash tray. SO if you have a dog and lock the door with him in, he wont set off the alarm.

You can put down the windows with the motion sensor on and start reaching in the windows. This should set off the alarm.

i will try it and see what happens.

cause I have tried locking it so the blinking red light is on... and then tried to unlock it with the key without taking the alarm off.... and it didn't do anything.

itshould be on. But if you just want to hear what the alarm sounds like, just press the button on the key. It will set off the alarm until you press it again.
