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?

quetranpa · June 18, 2011

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.
