Wanted you opinion on adding a Viper alarm system with a 2 way remote for my 1999 Corvette.

Have had my C5 Corvette since April, 2018 ,with 22,000 miles. Great find for me and garage kept. Again your opinion on adding the Viper as opposed to the factory installed security system.

installed quite a bit in c5's only issue may be the draw if this is not daily driven, or now battery tender. what did you need help with? I would opt for one with a remote start as well but that is just me

I will be driving my Vette to a big city on occasion and want more piece of mind as far as security, more than the factory alarm. Wanted to know about a good system. Bought a Viper,350. I received a response about the Viper 5702. I just wanted dependable security for my vehicle. I had also heard about systems malfunctioning and not being able to start the car. Wanted some feedback.
Thanks
