Perhaps the best reason to buy and install a car alarm system is to protect not only your car and stereo, but also yourself and your family. Apart from this, insurance companies usually charge lower premiums for the coverage against theft of cars equipped with an alarm system.
Choosing a car alarm system, however, is not easy. There are hundreds of brands manufactured all over the world to choose from. Of course, within the same brand, there are also several models. The features of basic models are limited to a siren when the doors, trunk, or hood of the car are opened. More advanced models, however, include features such as an in-car camera that takes a picture of a thief attempting to break into the car and transmits it to a remote pager with a color LCD screen.
First, you have to decide what you really want or need in a car alarm system. You not only want the alarm to keep your car safe, you also want it to be manageable and easily maintained. You want it to make things easier for you, providing you with a convenient way of arming or disarming it.
The system should be able to inform you of its status, that is, whether it is armed or not. Some systems use distinctive sounds such as a siren chirp to alert the owner that it was activated. Another kind of sound is emitted upon deactivation.
You also want a flashing LED light mounted on the dash or center console where it is visible outside the vehicle. This is a good deterrent to would-be car thieves as the light tells them that the car is ready to scream and shout if violated.
If you drive a convertible and are not fond of putting the top back on every time you leave the car, you want a motion sensor. Or if you like to leave your stuff in the back of your truck leaving you ample room inside the cab, you also have a good reason to opt for a motion sensor. Every time somebody walks into your open spaces, the siren starts to wail.
Glass-break sensors are also useful especially now that car thieves got the idea that crawling into your car through its broken window, thus leaving the door locked, will not trigger the alarm.
You may also want an alarm system that allows you to upgrade your system through the installation of additional features. A remote starter, remote activation of air conditioning, or windows control could be incorporated into the system, thus making your driving more comfortable.


How to Install a Car Alarm System

Car Alarm Installation

Car alarm system installation

Installing car alarm systems is a difficult and demanding job that most car owners would rather have professional installers do the job. However, this installation is not exactly quantum physics and experienced do-it-yourself advocates can conceivably perform the task. But they do need to study the instructions carefully, and they must have the proper set of tools before attempting to install their own car alarm systems.

After reading, preferably several times over, the installation instructions of your car alarm system, prepare the following tools:

1. Flathead, Philips, and Pozidriv screwdrivers
2. Wrenches or spanners sets
3. Electric drill
4. Wire cutter
5. Soldering iron or crimping tool
6. Electrical tapes and insulation tubes
7. Multimeter

    After you have prepared your tools and yourself, you can begin with the mounting of the siren. This is often placed under the hood but it can also be placed in the inner fender panel of your car. In either case, position it in a place that is the least accessible.

    Following the siren, you can now mount the control module. Again, you have a choice where to put it. You can install it under the dash close to the steering column, or behind the glove box. An alternative to putting it under the dash is to put it under a seat.

    Your sensors should be installed inside your vehicle where they can be kept dry. They should be attached solidly to metal surfaces with the use of screws. You can use your vehicles’ existing screws for this. Position it as close as possible to the center of the car so that it could pick up signals from all sides. When you adjust its sensitivity settings, test from all around the vehicle.

    You may not need all the pin switches supplied with your car alarm. Instead, you can incorporate the alarm triggers with existing pin switches. For example, you can tie the alarm for an unauthorized door opening into the switch for the dome light.

    The LED that comes with your system should be mounted on the place most visible to those outside the car. This is usually atop your dash or center console. The purpose of this flashing red light is to warn would-be car thieves that your car is protected.

    Install your valet switch in a place not easily seen but still accessible, as you will have to manually activate or deactivate it.

    Once these are installed, you can proceed to connect the wirings strictly following the diagram provided by the manufacturer. This is where mistakes often happen so you will want to be very careful with making the connections.
