Default Just got my Alarm installed!

Viper 790 Pager Alarm. Rod @ Car Audio Innovations in RoseVille/CA installed it. Did a VERY EXCELLENT job. I had a lot of anxiety going in, because I've seen what some installers can do. He gave me the opportunity to find the unit before he put the hush panekls back on.. even told me "about hwere" it was, and I couldnt locate it.

The pager system is great, added a back up battery and interior sirens as well. Im going to have to make it a little more shock sensitive, since I could climb in the bed without setting it off... but overall they did just a spectacular job. No interior piece out of place or screw loose.

anyone know where I can get a protective case for the pager?

The alarm is nice and loud, flashes the lights... remote start... love this unit. $589 OTD with the options I ordered.

I was looking at that same one for my vette, but the price is a bit high for me. Would the insurance go down some? :confused:

Depends on your carrier.

Excellent! Now when the mob tries to put a bomb in your car you can foil death by remote starting it from a safe distance. :thumbs: :cheers:

Some shock sensors are kooky that way; you can rock the car and nothing, but lean on it and LOOK OUT! :D

No, we would just put a pressure switch in the driver's seat. You start, it's ok. You sit down, KA-BOOM! :D :lol:
