English or African Sparrows?

 

Oh wait, nevermind that was Swallows....

 

Am interested in this as well. Curious how well it ignores thunder and lightning though.

LOL. yeah instead of buying a whole alarm i thought this would be good. sounds like it works well. ill have to order it soon

ok guys I have this installed on my truck and it works just fine

 

In the information sheet says that it can detect the key when inserted in the lock but I guess you have to mess with the actual sensor since in my case it detects loud mufflers but it does not detect something that little like a key

I will move it back to where the dealer installed it (on a fat bunch of wires) since it was working fine but I thought it would be better to attach it to a solid piece of frame but some other guys are saying that it is better on the bunch of wires so I will mess with it and see if it really detects shocks instead of fart cans

but over all I like it, it gives you the option (in the DIC) to turn it off when you turn the truck off, on top of adjusting sensibility with the little knob, so I will recommend it to anyone, it is a nice addition to your oem alarm!!!

I'm also planing on adding the tilt sensor for protecting my wheels.

 

edit: and by the way you have to take your truck to the dealer to install and program the thing

let me know if you have any questions.

thanks for the great info! i will look into it more and see what the dealer says. how much did you spend on it? and how much did they charge to install?

you know I paid $116.00 for it and they charged me $130.00 to installing it, but I just saw the price on it now and it is $93.00 and if you are lucky enough and find a dealer that knows how to install it I guess they will charge you for like half an hour for installation, I ended up paying I guess more than an hour, but I tried with 2 dealers since the first one (the one that ordered it for me) didn't know how to install it,

but on the second one they were like yes we can do it, and were surprised the others didn't know how to do the install (funny that when I took my truck to the same 2 dealers to program my navigation system it was the other way around hu? go figure)

 

edit: I recommend you guys that if you want to get remote start and may be tilt sensor on top of the motion sensor to do them all together that way is only one trip to the dealer and 1 charge for install and program.

Has anyone added the tilt and shock sensor to their factory alarm lately? How much was it? Do you have the factory fob still? Where do you buy it at?

    • Not sure about DFM tech but i know there's a stop/start deactivation button. 
    • I could be interested if they axed cylinder deactivation and at least have a button for stop start. I’m sure the HP numbers will be higher. I would want a longer warranty to help build confidence. I’m a less is more guy as I get older. A V-8 work truck model would be my choice. I know a few outfitters for custom additions I prefer. 
    • It's official. GMC pulled the covers off the next-gen 2027 Sierra 1500, and we got the first official look. Full breakdown here: https://www.gm-trucks.com/next-gen-2027-gmc-sierra-1500-v8-trim-changes/   The quick hits: SLE and SLT are dead. The new core retail trim is just called "Elevation". Two new V8s, a 5.7L and a 6.6L built with high-performance Corvette architecture roots. No horsepower or torque numbers yet. The 2.7 TurboMax finally ditches the old gearbox and gets the 10-speed automatic. AT4X moves to larger standard 35-inch tires with front and rear e-lockers, Multimatic DSSV dampers, and heavy-duty Jounce Control Dampers. Over 60 inches of combined display on Denali Ultimate and AT4X, complete with a motorized articulating center screen and an adaptive passenger screen. Seven simplified trims across the entire model line to clean up ordering confusion.   So let's get into it: New 5.7L and 6.6L gas V8s with custom active exhaust tuning and a Corvette connection. Is this the exact engine lineup half-ton traditionalists have been begging for? Purging the iconic SLE and SLT names after all these years to lean entirely on Elevation as the high-volume core. Bold move, or a mistake? That motorized articulating 16.3-inch screen that slides up to reveal a hidden dashboard vault. Awesome mechanical theater, or does it make you nervous about long-term durability? Physically lowering the headlamps in the front fascia to improve road courtesy and stop blinding oncoming traffic. Smart real-world engineering, or does it hurt the truck's aggressive stance? What trim are you putting your name down for on day one? Drop your first impressions below.  
    • My overnight hospital stay turned into five.  I developed a post operative fever and an erratic  heart rate.  A blood clot in the lungs was the culprit.  This is apparently a common post surgical complication and easily remedied.   I was the youngest in a four bed ward and a Doctor with a Geriatric specialization was in charge of my care.  All of the nurses were good and some were outstanding at dealing with old people.  It was very evident that my age triggered a different level of care!  My advice to any senior going for a hospital stay is to have a trusted family member advocate visible.  If not, you will still be well cared for, but you may discover that your voice  isn't as strong as it once was!
