    Default Sponsors or Alarm Installers...

    Howdy.

    My gf just bought a 92 Integra, in fairly good shape I must say and they are #8 on the top 10 cars stolen so time to deter some people if I can.

    I'm looking for the following...

    Keyless Entry
    Keyless Trunk Entry (Actually a hatch but should work the sale)
    Electronic Immobilizer
    Alarm

    if the price is right I would be interested in those 2 way remotes for her, so if someone smashes her car or is trying to steal it she can feel it vibrating or something and come out.

    Its a 92 Integra *don't know the engine right now*, has power locks already, manual car, no previous alarm system so it wouldn't be to hard to install.

    Could you let me know which packages u got avalible and how much for the package and how much for the installation? I'm going to talk it over with her and her mom maybe and split the cost for the best system possible. While we are hunting for prices might aswell look into GPS tracking systems aswell.

    If you prefer email, [email protected]

    Thanks

    I'd check out Derdal Designs, they are a sponsor, and I've only heard good things. I didn't buy my alarm there, but when I came in with a few q's they were very helpful. Anyway, give them a shout.

    I got my compustar hooked up from Derdall for my Lude and these guys were nothing but professional from the start to the finish. The biggest thing I noticed that was different about them is they treat you like a friend and not just another customer. I ended up having to wait there while it was done, and they offered me a ride to Chinook center so I could look around there to kill time and they even brought me Tim Hortons while I waited in their sitting area.

    They even took a look at problems I was having with my sound system and fixed it for free before giving the car back to me.

    Great group of guys , wouldnt go anywhere else for this kinda stuff as long as they are around.

    Got a PM back from CarSalon but no prices, basically a sales sceme of come down and I will show it to u, for any other people reading this that sell and install, I know how much of the systems work, I know how GPS works, I don't need a starter, I'm interested in pricing of a few units and the quality of your installs, showing me the product doesn't make a sale when yours is $200 more then everyone elses and your installs suck.

    I think I will give Derball a shout tomorrow morning.

    Ryan at Derdall helped me finish my power window install, figured out the wiring schematic, and properly wired my switches so they would work correctly...free of charge. And I didn't purchase the kit or the switches from them - goes to show ya the level of professionalism and courtesy these guys have. All I know is that i'd sooner go to them before I even considered anyone else.

    Btw - im not sure you can add keyless trunk entry as hondas do not open the trunk electronically, but with a cable.

    Weapon now that I think of it your right, oh well scratch that too then, I'm more interested in the electronic immobilzer and the keyless then anything else.

    You can, Ryan at Derdall did this to my prelude, just costs more for whatever parts and labor.

    ^^^

    werd, u can add trunk release to older Acuras, you just need a trunk release solanoid - like an actuator but for a trunk.

    definitely go 2way, cause no one cares about a car alarm but the owner of a car

    immobilizers and start kill features do nothing for a manual transmission since the car can be jump started anyway. spend the money on back up sirens or pain generating sirens.

    Immbolizers prevent the pests from egtting it. Sure it can be jump started, if osmeone really wants the car, they will get it. I'm looking more into Immbolizers, 2way, keyless entry, and possibly GPS depending on the price, nothign liek getting a reward when you bust a ring of theives.

    Hey AllGoNoShow a little off topic here but I think it will be a good idea to set up a thread with places that install in car entertainmant ie alarm stereo etc.......forgive me if this has already been set up and I missed it.
    Do you understand the words that are coming out of your mouth?

    lol Yah I guess I could, afterall I am doing the research why not provide it to others. I'll do that tonight for everyone. I'm thinking of maybe including a little user rating 5 star thing, depending on how many users like them they get stars on it, everytiem they mess up it counts as 2 people against them, something like that.

    yeah, i asked him if it would be possible and he said yes, but I didn't have that much money at the time to have it installed so I didn't get it.

    Cool, well I will probably just get her a nice big package deal and pay for it and let her take it in whenever she wants for our 6 months or something.

    Sounds like Derball will be getting the business.

    One question, its seems Compustar (I think) is gettign more business then the Viper alarms, I thought Viper had everythign anyone could need and every raved about it, now its moved on or am I missing something?

    Aftermarket Electronic Immobilizer are Garbage unless it's installed from the factory/comes with the car, since the ECu is disabled. inaddition to the Fuel system.

    the After market ones suck ass. It's just a fancy starter kill using a relay, which can be easily bypassed
