Compustar is a very good brand but I prefer Viper, but that’s just my personal taste. What kind of range are you looking for. ---

You have 2 options… you can get a backup battery where if your main battery is disconnected your alarm will still get power… but the cheaper option is to get a backup battery siren, how that works if your battery is disconnected the backup siren has its own power and will kick in when it loses 12V or ground. It will keep wailing until its turned off by key, or if the thief finds it and smashes the crap outta it. ---

DEI makes them and they are not that expensive. ---

Very Interesting. Or one could located the batter into the trunk and cover it up? but i’m sure they would figure out where it is. the back up siren sounds like a good cheap alternative. it makes them think there is a backup battery and they probably will either a) run b) find the backup battery c) find the extra siren gives less % to the theif to find the correction option in which would disable the alarm. ---

No we do not deal with Boomerang we use a company that is called The Witness, much better system, it gives you tracking via internet or cell phone. If your car is stolen you get confirmation right away, with the boomerang you have to get a police report first before they track your car. ---
