Anyone use aftermarket alarm sysems?

Pros and cons?

Viper system?

Thanks in advance

OEM one for monitoring doors, trunk and hood is $40 plus activation at stealership.

OEM one that adds tilt sensor (for when your car gets repo'd) AND motion sensor is $240 plus activation.

No clue on aftermarket ones, but $40 for basic functionality is hard to beat.

I'm on my phone otherwise I'd provide link. Search the general forum.

Ive installed an aftermarket that is wired to hood, doors, trunk, indicators for light when arming. It also got motion sensor and tilt sensor. And the most important feature, it uses the OEM remote in the key.
Im also connecting it up to my tracking system so if hte alarm goes off Ill get a SMS.
Its a norwegian brand, so I guess you dont have it over there...
